> As far as I understand the NPOSL-3.0, cloud vendors would definitely count as for-profit, and therefore not be allowed to use the software

The NPOSL doesn’t prohibit for profit licensees, it includes a declaration that the licensor is a nonprofit, which may (where true) in some jurisdictions increase the effectiveness of warranty disclaimers.

For-profit entities can use NPOSL software freely.




My bad, misunderstood that! Thank you for clarifying this.
