AGPL is an open source license for web apps and other web services. Since this is meant to be deployed with Docker, AGPL is the superior license.

I am using this as a dependency in my enterprise software suite. As I have heard many other important companies like Facebook, Google and my brother's shell company are also depending on this and would be forced to open source their complete codebase as they copied parts of nocode everywhere into their own code, if we move this to AGPL.

Thus I strongly oppose this change, and I am backed in this opinion backed by billions of currency units.

@cburchert Well then, I guess this means war. I assure, this war will end in our victory, the victory of FREEDOM!

If we don't get our way, we just make a true open-source alternative: LIBRENoCode.

I would recommend WTFPL as proposed in https://github.com/kelseyhightower/nocode/pull/1200

Why not just go public domain?
