Etherpad source includes JSMin, which Google Code doesn't allow
,----[ Quote ]
| Last week, Google banned my PHP port of JSMin
| from Google Code due to a quibble over a line
| in the license stating that âThe Software
| shall be used for Good, not Evilâ, which they
| believe makes the license non-free. When I
| asked Googleâs Chris DiBona whether all Google
| Code projects including JSMin would be subject
| to bans due to this clause in the license, he
| replied, âSadly, yesâ.

JSMin isn't welcome on Google Code
,----[ Quote ]
| Googleâs Chris DiBona emailed me this morning
| to tell me that unless I removed a specific
| line from the license of my jsmin-php project
| (a PHP port of Douglas Crockfordâs JSMin),
| Google Code would no longer host the project.

Google pays for Affero ban

| The projects will join around 10 other AGPL-licensed efforts on SourceForge,
| compared to six on Google Code. Before the defections, Google had been
| discouraging other AGPL projects, saying Google Code does not support AGPL.
|
| The dispute between Google and developers who want to use AGPL - a version of
| GPLv3 tailored for use in software as a service - has rumbled on since last
| November, when AGPL was finalized.

AGPL v3 to be added to Palamida Watch List
,----[ Quote ]
| Palamida is tracking adoption of GPL v3 on a special blog. The last post
| mentioned an incredible rate of adoption for it. There are already more than
| 2,000 projects using the license (or a variation of it, like LGPL v3), with a
| good chance to reach 5,000 by the end of the year. I feel we are about to
| reach the tipping point, when everyone will move from GPL v2 to v3.
