Sigh. Please don't call the Elastic license "open source". It's nice that the source is available, but this is not an open source license.

EDIT: per responses, it looks like this is outdated information and the project now uses AGPL!

The docs still say the Elastic license is used but looking at https://github.com/ubicloud/ubicloud/blob/main/LICENSE it looks like the project might have switched to GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 in the last day.

That's wonderful news, thank you very much for switching to an actually open license!

The linked page at https://www.ubicloud.com/docs/github-actions-integration/qui... still says "Source open under the Elastic V2 license", and https://www.ubicloud.com/docs/about/pricing still says "it's open and free under the Elastic V2 license". Not sure if those were missed or if the docs just need some time to refresh from their sources.
