    [$] The complexity of BUSL transformation

    Description:
    The Business
    Source License (BUSL) is a source-available license that "converts"
    to an open-source license after a period of time. In theory, this
    means that a few years after a version of a product is released under
    the BUSL, it becomes open source and is fair game for Linux
    distributions to package along with regular open-source projects. In
    practice, the license throws a few curveballs that require special consideration and caution, as the Fedora Project recently discussed.
