What specific problems do you have with it? Is it just that it closes a loophole that would let you avoid giving away the source code of your modifications?

Hat tip for this one: "SaaSS-ification villains" I agree. People should do what they want with their own projects. Real question: Has AGPL ever been tested in court? We know GPL has been effectively legally tested via the BusyBox and OpenWRT cases. Armies of lawyers from both sides went into negotiations "guns a blazin'" and GPL came out victorious. I wonder when and how the "A" part will be legally tested. EDIT Woah. Double hat tip for teaching me about "SaaS vs SaaSS" in that gnu.org link!
