Le conflit entre OnlyOffice et le consortium Euro-Office soulève une question que le monde du logiciel libre n'a jamais vraiment tranchée. Jusqu'où un auteur peut-il imposer ses conditions dans une licence open source sans créer une contradiction interne ?
@LibreOfficeDE ich finde die Entscheidung von @nextcloud zu #eurooffice auch höchst unglücklich.
Es fühlt sich wie ein Gegeneinander und nicht wie Mitteinander an.
Das Dateiformats"problem" macht es auch nicht Schmackhafter...
Oh what a week in office land: not only #OnlyOffice vs. #EuroOffice (don't get me started on this one).
But also #collabora, main contributor to #LibreOffice, is kicked out of #TheDocumentFoundation, which leads them focusing on #CollaboraOffice. Not an April fool's joke although it sounds exactly like (a bad) one.
See Michael Meeks' post on this: https://www.collaboraonline.com/blog/tdf-ejects-its-core-developers/
Not exactly optimal, where we have a great window of opportunity to push further for #Digitalsovereignity
¿Euro-Office?...... ¿qué es Euro-Office?. 🤔

This new #OpenSource office suite wants to replace #GoogleDocs and #MicrosoftOffice

Das europäische Projekt Euro-Office soll eine Alternative zu Microsoft Office werden, sorgt aber schon jetzt für juristischen Ärger. Der Entwickler OnlyOffice wirft dem Konsortium um Nextcloud schwere Lizenzverstöße beim Abspalten des Quellcodes vor.
I knew the AGPL as a license that prohibits "storming off and making it a commercial offering".
The license that Redis and Elasticsearch should have used instead of fucking around with custom licenses when Amazon took their stuff, made paid offerings out of it and gave nothing back to them.
OnlyOffice's AGPL is limited by a phrase saying:
- You have to use the OnlyOffice logo if you fork it
...and another phrase that says
- You have no rights to use the OnlyOffice logo.
Apparently the AGPL inventor and the FSF side with Nextcloud on this.
OnlyOffice's AGPL isn't really opensource if it enforces crap like that.
