The license is a bit perplexing at https://gitlab.com/mbryant/functiontrace/-/blob/master/LICEN...

It says it is licensed under Apache License 2.0, but also under "Prosperity Public License 3.0.0" which limits use for a commercial purpose to 30 days.

I'm not sure why the Gitlab UI shows Apache 2.0, but PPL3.0 is the correct license (and is in LICENSE.md).

I don't see any pricing page or anything. So if I'm a business and after the 30 days decide I'm sold on it, what exactly do I do?

The website (https://functiontrace.com/) mentions that dual licensing is available at the bottom of the page, so my best guess would be that you need to contact the author for pricing details.

ah, that makes sense. Thanks!
