The AGPL suggestion for Roundcube core has actually nothing to do with the requirement of making the source code of plugins available which are published under AGPL- > > So, we need some URL field in package.xml. > > Maybe I don't get it – but a pear package does not compile code.

If you install a plugin which in licensed under AGPL you have to provide the source to the users of that system. That's required by the AGPL itself. We (Roundcube) want to take the burden of collecting the links to all the AGPL sources away from the sysadmins which install Roundcube with AGPL plugins but collect them all in a single place. That's why we want the URL to the source of an AGPL plugin to be stated in the package itself. Of course we could also add some script which collects all the files directly from the Roundcube installation directory but this brings in some security topics which I'd like to avoid. ~Thomas _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/ BT/8f4f07cd
