If you’re going to call out the AGPL for introducing restrictions, maybe you should call out the original GPL for introducing restrictions as well?
Lumping the AGPL in with the Elastic license feels intellectually dishonest.
- PhilKunz 2y agoMaybe I need to revisit that part. My key point in other words is: restrictions are bad: In one moment they are intended to work pro open source, the next they work anti Open Source, by wrongfully claiming Open Source work for some exclusive commercial interests of a single entity.
- dave4420 2y agoI don’t understand how the AGPL claims open source work for a single entity? My understanding is that it insists that all users be able to download the modified source code, similar to how the GPL insists that all users of a compiled binary should be able to obtain the source code.
