Yeah that definitely helps clarifying the issue, I think.

As long as Openstack only use Apache licensed code >>from MondgoDB Inc.<< and diligently avoids using any open source contributions from any community contributor to the MongoDB ecosystem, then you remain compliant the your CLA.

I wouldn't have known the APGL licensed database and the conflict with MongoDB, Inc. licensed code and community code. I guess now all ORM built upon pymongo used in commercial settings is that trouble zone then?

This is a huge bummer. Definitely an alert for those looking forward to use MongoDB at commercial settings as parent said.
