It seems to me that it is a mistake to describe this as "open source" given that the license[1] has a commercial use restriction. The de-facto definition of what constitutes "open source" - The OSD[2] - explicitly disallows "field of use" restrictions (see clause #6).

It would probably be more correct to call this "shared source" or something.

You are totally right. I failed to notice that it doesn't comply with the OSD, but it's too late for me to fix the title.

if any of the links(to book and software) would work, that would be great

I tried a few links and they all worked. Could you be more specific?
