I see the source of elasticsearch contains the source of x-pack，Does Elastic Team are going to free the X-Pack commercial use in es7.0？

While the code for X-Pack is available in a public repository, [we do not claim that it is "Open Source"](https://www.elastic.co/products/x-pack/open). See [Subscriptions](https://www.elastic.co/subscriptions) about the different features available.

The default distribution of Elasticsearch includes all of X-Pack, but the default license is "basic".

You can activate a free trial of the commercial features via Kibana (Management -\> License) or via [the API](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack-overview/6.3/license-management.html).
