However, that was never the idea of the original report, and not what I would
like to do.

Does somebody else believe that adding 30k to base-files is too much because
there are not packages in the base system using AGPL?

AFAIK, "common licenses" means just that, common licenses, not "common licenses
in the base system". I believe we would still benefit from adding the AGPL.

Thanks.
