Notwithstanding any other provision of this License, if you modify the Program, your modified version must prominently offer all users interacting with it remotely through a computer network (if your version supports such interaction) an opportunity to receive the Corresponding Source of your version by providing access to the Corresponding Source from a network server at no charge, through some standard or customary means of facilitating copying of software.
Does this mean : "even if you copy this, the copy should be open source" ?
I'm not a lawyer, but from what I understand that part is what makes the AGPL special. With AGPL if someone makes a modified version of i-hate-regex and hosts it somewhere where others can access it then they also need to provide the source to their modified version.
But yeah with AGPL if someone makes a copy then the copy should be open source.
I will check with a few people and update the license :)
@geongeorge Any news?
Any update?
It seems that you would want others to use and contribute to this software. It would be good to have a license (even just MIT/ISC) so people can use and modify it legally. However, I would recommend AGPLv3 since I think what you are doing is particularly important.
