🤦…have you followed this mess with #Onlyoffice's inappropriate behavior toward #Nextcloud?
I've been researching it for 3 weeks.
TL;DR: #Ascensio (Onlyoffice's licensor) is YA company to purposely misuse AGPLv3§7!
Thank goodness for AGPLv3§7¶4, but as always, one must be courageous to remove a “further restriction” & redistribute.
& thanks to Nextcloud for forking to #EuroOffice. Now, we should all come to their aid.

@bkuhn opens with "This article discusses a current-headlines situation regarding Affero General Public License, version 3, Section 3, paragraph 4 (AGPLv3§7¶4.)."

i think that should be "Section 7"

@keverets 😬 … how did everyone at #SFC who vetted my draft miss that (including me)!!

I'll fix it shortly. Thanks for bringing it to my attention here as might not have seen it elsewhere!
