Hi,<br>
<br>
Of course it will be Apache v2 when it is incubated, otherwise
it will be rejected. eNovance policy is to publish server side
code under AGPLv3+, hence the change. This should have been
discussed before though. If this raises any issues please let
me know and I'll make sure they are resolved.<br>

<div>As I pointed out privately, it seems like it will be easier
to start with the license we know we will need later than to
change the license after we have a bunch of contributions. I
appreciate the rationale behind a "default to copyleft"
policy, but the community already has a standard for licensing
and that should take precedence here.</div>

This is reasonable indeed and we will publish all code to ceilometer
under Apache from now on. Thanks for raising this issue.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
