[..] Now in terms of granting rights, if my mail server contained AGPL code and this was displayed in the SMTP protocol then a user could connect to it and discover whether I was using code for which they could demand the source. I disagree with your interpretation. The AGPL states prominently offer all users, displaying at protocol level doesn't comply with either prominently nor with all users (because only a few sysadmins will telnet to port 25.) Such offer should be on SMTP *and* on the website offering this service. I fail to see how it would be more prominently offered. At least tcp/25 is related to the service itself, a website has nothing to do with it. (I mean, there /might/ be a website offering the service, but in most cases there is not).

Yes, but, as we say here: « cela va sans dire, mais ça va encore mieux en le disant » (“it goes without saying, but it goes better saying it”, sorry for the poor translation). When you register to NM process, you're asked to check boxes if you agree to Social Contract etc. But those checks aren't really enough. What you have is to say (somewhere on a signed mail) that you agree. Currently only the AM receives the mail, and translate this in his AM report, using a signed mail. And we trust AM that the NM sure has agreed to DSFG, Social Contract, … It's still a good idea to have, at some point, the confirmation. Maybe you'd prefer, like DM, that the mail would be sent, signed, to debian-nm? Cheers, -- Yves-Alexis signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part
