Publishing to the app store as a copy/clone/forgery would be difficult as Apple has strong rules against this, not to mention pretty disrespectful to our community and maintainers who have to support our app and now have to deal with a rouge version on the app store. As far as licensing, our name and logos are trademarked, but the code and app is completely open source (as is everything in our project by design).
I think a better option would be to (and what i do when developing) publish using test flight as a developer version, this lets you do all of the same things without dealing with the app store. Also I believe i read Apple is working on a alternative app distribution method to comply with EU laws, so that may come this year.
