I can, and I point at all the WordPress GPL furore. Aiki is exactly
the same; if your widget code calls the Aiki APIs, its AGPL code.

Widget code is stored in a database instead of files on disk, but
that's irrelevant; Code is always stored as data somehow.

Title:
  Aiki sites should be Affero compliant out of the box

Status in Aiki Framework:
  New

Bug description:
  Currently Aiki sites must make their code available by hand to comply
  with the license.

  I bet that most Aiki sites are out of compliance with the license.
  This is a SERIOUS problem.
