Why the AGPL and not the BSD license?

• I like the AGPL generally over BSD for non-protocol works because I've put so much into this that I do want to get some $ benefit for project sustainability if possible (per things like RMS' writings on business models etc), and if someone else really does just run with it, I want to be able to use their improvements.  I don't pretend to know the final answers on everything but that much seems good enough to work with for now.
  
  See the CONTRIBUTING file for more details on licensing and the possibility of relicensing.  I tried to write that file so that the key parts are short and the rest are skimmable (read first & last sentences...).
