The author seems to be aware of GPLv3 but neglects to mention this is one of the problems it's intended to solve. Odd.
- blasdel 17y agoThe only meaningful changes in the GPLv3 are the Tivoization clause (distribution doesn't count if there's code-signing) and marginal edits to remove their imagined incompatibility with the Apache license. The GPLv3 doesn't have shit to do with SaaS -- for that kind of wank you'll have to look to the AGPL
- prodigal_erik 17y agoThanks, I thought that had happened, but instead they apparently chose to fork GPLv3 into AGPLv3 for those requirements.
