Hello,

According to fd_plugins.c allowed license for Bacula FD Plugins is AGPLv3
only:
(...)
   if (strcmp(info->plugin_license, "Bacula AGPLv3") != 0 &&
       strcmp(info->plugin_license, "AGPLv3") != 0) {
(...)
What is a reason of such restriction? FD plugin not necessarily has to be
linked with Bacula code or someone have to use different license, even
opensource but incompatible with AGPL. These plugins won't be registered
with bacula-fd.
I thought that Bacula Plugin API allow integrating some functionalities in a
clean and independent way (without changing main Bacula code). I don't see
any legal or technical limitation to use AGPL only plugins in Bacula.

What do you think about it?

regards
