As "open core" goes, that's pretty blatant. The correct answer is that it is not in fact a working piece of free software, and the claim to be AGPL is a marketing lie.

Hello,
Somebody asks me to support a nice program with a AGPL license.
It is free as in speech, but not as in beer. If you want to use it for more then 5 users, you have to pay a fee,
The source is available but the Makefile is missing. The developer says it's to make it a bit more difficult to build it yourself. Eventually for removing the registration.
It's a complex Java program what depends on many third party components (all free), so maybe it's not so easy to make such a Makefile, no idea.
What's your opinion?
