I'm a open source developer myself and I cannot figure out what license this CMS is. I know there is an old issue regarding this but reading the current license text I assume I cannot use this CMS for commercial web sites.

Maybe you should look to that: https://github.com/rochacbruno/quokka/blob/master/LICENSE

victor-torres commented 6 years ago

@therealmarv It appears to be the 3-Clause BSD License.

Quokka is licensed under a three clause BSD License. It basically means: do whatever you want with it as long as the copyright in Quokka sticks around, the conditions are not modified and the disclaimer is present. Furthermore you must not use the names of the authors to promote derivatives of the software without written consent.

*this is the same license that Flask uses
