Just read carefully their page:
http://www.gluecode.com/website/html/prod_licensing.htm
ESL: Enterprise Source License
OSL: OEM Source License
None is an OSI approved license. In particular, the Enterprise Source
License is certainly not open-source since it does not allow to
distribute modified versions.
It is not the first time that the term "open-source" in used with a
different meaning of the OSI definition.
