Hi!

I don't get the difference with the actual license. I read that:

(...) specifically designed to ensure cooperation with the community in the case of network server software. (From https://opensource.org/licenses/AGPL-3.0)

Do you know some use case? Thanks!

Well if you ran this on a server as GPL then you could make source code changes to the PHP without releasing the chnaged source code. However with the AGPL you would be required to release the changed source code. ~If I am right. This site explains it simply I guess - http://choosealicense.com/

yeah, the AGPL basically ensures that the reasons you would choose GPL are actually still going to be followed

Yeah. It would be good for this case.
