RC was created with plugins in mind. They are an integral way for people to expand and integrate RC into other systems. At some point you have to let go and allow people to use it, without trying to dictate how they can use it.
Well, that is what the exception is explicitly aiming to do.
And yes, I already saw you agreed to it.
Sorry? I think AGPL does mandate you to release all source code the moment you change 1 byte in the original code. Basically the moment RC would become AGPL, everyone that changed 1 line of code in their source would have to provide a full source link or not be compliant. Right?
Almost.
Independently of whether or not you modified anything, with the proposed AGPL option, one would have to provide a download link for the core Roundcube packages (those that are provided on roundcube.net) but *not* the modules that may be under different licenses, and *only* for users to which the service was provided -- so not just anybody.
