In light of the momentum the community has built up in the area of change in recent months, now would be a good time to resume licensing discussions and bring them to a final resolve.
I cannot contribute fully to this discussion at this time. Please can we try to limit the number of simultaneous disruptive changes? As you know, we have 3.2 releasing, new websites and urgent trademark challenges which I'd like to contribute to and my work is already spread a bit too thin. Please can we leave this until after 3.2.0?
I, for one, do not want to attempt relicensing prior to release of 3.2.0 or as a condition for release of that version. Personally, while I am currently in favor of relicensing to GPL3+ (assuming that we can resolve the matter of dependencies on GPL2 code such as OpenNCIP) and think that the AGPL3 should be considered as well, it would be too disruptive to even think of doing this for 3.2.
I also concur that this is not a change to be made in 3.2.
However, since the proposal is relevant for 3.4, I do think that now is as a good a time as any to start a discussion of this issue.
Ditto. Kind Regards, Chris
