Just to toss in a bit about AGPL... 

AGPL can be a bit of a pain in practice. We have a few AGPL apps in
Fedora, and have had to adjust things some for them. 

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Infrastructure_Licensing#Third_Party_Apps_under_AGPLv3.2B

Basically if you need to apply a hotfix or change ANYTHING with the
source you have to make sure that EXACT source is available to users of
the service. This adds a fair bit of education (make sure no one in
your company ever changes things without knowing that they must also
change the offered online source) and record keeping (make sure every
change you make it refected in the offered source as soon as/at the
same time as it's made on the service). 

See: 
https://apps.fedoraproject.org/packages/
for an example app that has links to our currently running source. 

Personally, while I understand what they were trying to do with the
AGPL, in practice I tend to avoid it due to all the extra work. ;)
