Got it.
So it's related to the nature of OpenERP's software modules rather
than licensing.
Hi Alexandre,
in my opinion as a non-lawyer it is also the license.
In their FAQ, GNU claims that a module for a specific program is subject
to a viral license. See
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#GPLModuleLicense
The copyright holders can license their code otherwise of course, but
anyone using it as a module in OpenERP is effectively relicencing the
code as AGPL. And these users are only allowed to do that if AGPL is an
existing licencing option granted by the copyright holders.
Cheers,
Stefan.
