Confluence is a terrible tool and its marketing seems to have mislead
you, because that is not an Open Source software licence.  It is a
cost-free proprietary licence they grant if you use Confluence to work
on Free and Open Source Software (FOSS).  They give you a licence and
seem to add adverts to the bottom of every page, which I guess helps
to promote their non-FOSS product to FOSS users.

Also, by using Confluence, you are locking out potential collaborators
who care about freedom and helping Atlassian Pty Ltd to replace open
project communities.  Please, I beg you to move your work to a FOSS
wiki as soon as reasonably possible.

Hope that explains,
