I think everything he shows is open source. He mentions where repos can be found.

The post title, which I didn't change when crossposting, and the medium post are garbage. I'm pretty sure the medium post misquotes him as I read it again after watching the video. It's also weirdly written, like slop weird.

The video is interesting though.

Yeah, but the sense I got is he's not talking about the open source or standard, he's talking about Atlassian's specific implementation, and other non-standards based work besides the OSB.

In normal employment contracts, that's a no-no.

If you're interested in the video, grab a copy, because I'd reckon Atlassian could have it pulled if they want. And sue the guy as well.
