Cool project, just wish it wasn't AGPL.

  Why?

  contact them and they may not mind working out a commercial license with you or were you just lamenting that it wasn't given away freely enough for you?

    Like politics, I find that extremism and absolutism in software usually leads to less inclusion and less freedom for everyone involved, not more. Look at the effects of the policy, not just the intention. The unintended targets of the restrictions and not just the intended ones. I'd tell you that your unwarranted sarcasm isn't worthy of you. But I don't know you, so maybe it is.

      > less inclusion and less freedom People have different values and ideas, which means those words may mean something entirely different to someone else, to how you interpret them. xGPL code seeks to protect the freedom of the developer and the consumer to tinker with the code (right to know and repair), at the (slight) expense of capitalism. There is no prohibition on you to use the code, even commercially. All the license demands of you is that if a consumer of the product demands the source code, you share it with them. And that you cannot prohibit them to modify and distribute it further.

        > People have different values and ideas, which means those words may mean something entirely different to someone else, to how you interpret them. You have more or less restated my point, and incorrectly assumed that I don't know how various flavors of the GPL are intended to function.
