Right, and it seems to work as intended for web apps, such as CMS or video streaming portal. But in the back-end. If, let’s say, the server’s kernel or data base software were under AGPL-3.0, the end user of a the web app would still not be entitled to gain access to its source code. Same can be said for services that provide APIs over the web. As I read it, e.g. a REST call does not trigger the copyleft clause of the AGPL-3.0. The FOSS projects (and companies) that are currenlty suffering and complaining are working on the backends, not the frontends, of the web. cheers, Matija -- gsm: +386 41 849 552 www: http://matija.suklje.name xmpp: matija.suk...@gabbler.org sip: matija_suk...@ippi.fr _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list License-discuss@lists.opensource.org http://lists.opensource.org/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org
