I'm wondering if anybody has any experience or thoughts about licenses that 
permit self-hosting, and free hosting, but require a license fee for for-profit 
hosting.

Stephen Paul Weber responded:
Of course, such a license would not be open source. However, I believe that 
AGPL would get you very close to the spirit of what you want, while still being 
an open source license.

Larry Rosen now comments:
AGPL doesn't affect for-profit hosting. It only affects *proprietary* hosting 
of AGPL code to third parties over a network, for which the copyright owner can 
demand a for-fee AGPL license exception.
