Thanks for this good suggestion.Suggestion: How about we make a list of concerns that people have and I email Brett Smith with them? That way we consolidate the concerns into one submission and potentially speed up the process of obtaining answers. MJ, Sam, perhaps you could coordinate the list of questions.
My personal proposal is the creation of a list of implications of choosing a specific license to help prospective licensors choose (or avoid) a license according to their requirements.
My proposed implication is:
With the GPL3 this is not true: at some time in the distribution chain, derived works may have certain additional restrictions added, thus licensing the combined work under the AGPL such that when an original contributor receives the derived work with enhancements to his own work, he may not distribute any combination of his work with any of those enhancements unless he does so with the additional restrictions of the AGPL.
If the licensor finds this disparity objectionable then he may prefer to use the GPL2.
I believe that this implication is not widely understood and because ealier versions of the GPL are widely known to prohibit the addition of extra restrictions, this implication is also unexpected.
