 The GNU Affero Public License version 3 (“AGPL”) is one of the newest members of the GPL family of licenses. The Free Software Foundation describes the AGPL as “a free, copyleft license for software and other kinds of works, specifically designed to ensure cooperation with the community in the case of network server software.” It extends the GPLv3 license by giving end-users access to the source code for software accessed over a network. The AGPL has grown in popularity since it was introduced in 2007, used by almost 400 open source projects. And with the increase in popularity, questions about its use and obligations have grown as well. To gain a better understanding of the AGPL, its genesis, usage and common questions, please join Black Duck Software with Karen Copenhaver (Choate, Hall and Stewart) and Mark Radcliffe (DLA Piper), two of the software industry's most prominent IP lawyers and domain experts with the GPL. |
