       I am debating whether to release the demo code I am writing under GPLv3+ or Apache V2.  I love copyleft's protection of the commons, and I prefer to use it for my end user oriented stuff.  However, for stuff to encourage people to adopt *standards* stuff, I tend to stick to more lax/permissive licenses since propagation of the ideas is more important than protecting the code itself.

       For why not AGPLv3+ (even though I think it's a fine choice for many projects, including mediagoblin) for the future-oriented network stuff I'm working on, see my upcoming CopyleftConf talk :)

       @cwebber My personal rule is: libraries under BSD, applications under AGPLv3.

       @phoe reasonable, though I'm very concerned about patents, so I prefer to use Apache v2 over BSD/Expat(MIT)

       @cwebber I'd love an LGPL but with exceptions for static as well as dynamic linking.

       @hankg MPLv2's file-based copyleft achieves that.
