💣️ ONLYOFFICE suspends Nextcloud partnership for forking its project without permission

「 ONLYOFFICE has suspended its 8-year-old partnership with Nextcloud, citing license violations after the Euro-Office coalition forked the ONLYOFFICE repo. The partnership between both platforms allowed Nextcloud users to edit and collaborate on office documents right inside their own instance, which made it a big deal for self-hosters 」

@jbz They had permission. It's in the AGPL licence.

OnlyOffice folks are acting like patent trolls, but without patents here.

@ananas @jbz Would be nice to get an overview from someone who knows the details, especially why #OnlyOffice came up with the idea for those additional catch-22 license terms in 2021 to begin with.
