Ok, their license is pretty strange: https://github.com/mattermost/mattermost/blob/master/LICENSE...

MIT for binaries distributed by Mattermost.

But, if you compile it yourself: GNU AGPL v3.0 XOR Paid-for Enterprise License

Then, for some odd reason, they append the text of Apache License Version 2.0!!!

View on HN

The frontend parts are explicitly and correctly licensed under the Apache license in the header of the same file.

They also have a FAQ: https://docs.mattermost.com/product-overview/faq-license.htm...

Note that they have multiple licenses. This isn't entirely uncommon. The difference licenses apply to different things.

Ooh, I see it now, right in the middle:

"...You are licensed to use the source code in Admin Tools and Configuration Files (server/templates/, server/i18n/, server/public/, webapp/ and all subdirectories thereof) under the Apache License v2.0...."
