Too bad it's AGPL. I understand the want to make money while open sourcing at the same time, but I fear this license will scare people. Are the majority of WebFWD sponsored open-source projects choosing this license?

I don't think there is another WebFWD III project licensed under the AGPL. We chose it to in order to allow people to use and customize our code but prevent competitive services built on it.

If you need a special license for your project contact us at founders(at)mist.io

We've never done an audit or survey of which licenses our teams select in WebFWD. We do offer counsel on all of the licenses so our teams can pick which one best suits their specific business model and product. A lot of this is on our website > http://blog.webfwd.org/post/27490054493/getting-your-softwar...
