I don't know what the conditions are, but quoting from the faq:

"Our goal is to release all of Launchpad as free software, though it will take 
some time (potentially, years) before that happens."

In other words it hasn't happened yet.

"If you are keen on seeing Launchpad components published as free software 
sooner, rather than later, and you have good Python and Zope3 skills, we are 
happy to provide code access and accept patches"

However, until Launchpad is actually released as free software, you certainly 
cannot distribute it.
