I agree with your assessment of the AGPL-CLA combination. But the initial part seems to be about the Matrix protocol. The projects that were forked and re-licensed are the servers - Synapse, Dendrite, Sygnal, Sydent and MAS. The protocol itself is still under Apache 2.0 (https://spec.matrix.org/latest/ https://spec.matrix.org/latest/), though they seem to have added CLA to it. If so, the protocol doesn't have the problem you pointed out. You could use another server - like Conduit.

Where do you see they added a CLA to the protocol? If you are referring to the sign-off, it has always been there and isn't a CLA.

the spec has no CLA, and I don’t believe the Foundation has plans to add CLAs.
