Hi, Just a quick question: Is AGPLv3+ an acceptable license for a third party library that is a dependency for an Openstack project? I read: (from http://governance.openstack.org/reference/licensing.html) In order to be acceptable as dependencies of OpenStack projects, external libraries (produced and published by 3rd-party developers) must be licensed under an OSI-approved license that does not restrict distribution of the consuming project. The list of acceptable licenses includes ASLv2, BSD (both forms), MIT, PSF, LGPL, ISC, and MPL. Licenses considered incompatible with this requirement include GPLv2, GPLv3, and AGPL. Is AGPL the same as AGPLv3 (and therefore not acceptable)? Thanks, Ade Lee
