As mentioned earlier, MongoDB Inc. wants people to use MongoDB, the project. That's why we wrapped the server code (AGPL) in an Apache license (drivers). Basically, for 99.999% of the world's population, you can use MongoDB under the cover of the Apache license. If you'd like more assurance, we're happy to provide it.
