It is, yes. It's more permissive than the AGPL because it allows you to use SpacetimeDB as a library without licensing your own code under the AGPL. We were trying to solve the problem that there is no Lesser AGPL, and linking is the reason by Google doesn't allow AGPL in their codebase at all:

- fjfuvucucuc 3y agoIsn't that just gpl2?
- cloutiertyler 3y agoThere is no lesser GPLv2.0, you need a custom linking exception there too.
- mdaniel 3y agoI wouldn't ordinarily chirp about this because it seems to be such a common typo/mistake but the fact you have a badge for it <https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/0f1fdf62d013036847778c0cc40ee4712f492e86/README.md#L31 https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/0f1fdf62d0...> as well as typoing it down in the license section <https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/0f1fdf62d013036847778c0cc40ee4712f492e86/README.md#L191 https://github.com/clockworklabs/SpacetimeDB/blob/0f1fdf62d0...> makes it worth pointing out in hopes of correction The SPDX for BUsiness Source License is BUSL https://spdx.org/licenses/BUSL-1.1.html https://spdx.org/licenses/BUSL-1.1.html but the SPDX for Boost Source License is BSL https://spdx.org/licenses/BSL-1.0.html https://spdx.org/licenses/BSL-1.0.html Based on a search <https://shields.io/search?q=license https://shields.io/search?q=license> it seems you're using the custom badge syntax <https://shields.io/badges/static-badge https://shields.io/badges/static-badge> so you have influence over the correction
- cloutiertyler 3y agoWhoops! We'll fix this right away. Good catch, thanks for the heads up!
