[FI-NEXT] fi-next ca version 14.02.207

[Stefano De Panfilis]

dear robert,

we have to distingush between three different cases:
1. the case of those who are fully compliant with fiware approach
2. those who use third party software which use controlled licenses
3. those who are the only owner and want to use controlled licenses

the goal of fiware is to limit as much as possible cases 2 and 3 or at
least limits their effects.

so considering that as such we cannot do anything with case 2 more then
that having the fiware technical steering committee trying to persuade the
contributor to avoid to use software released under controlled licenses, we
would want somehow to manage case 3 and this why we ask them to use the
additional text proposed. this way also the case 3 becomes fully fiware
compliant.

please note that mongodb applies a very much similar approach to us (
https://www.mongodb.com/blog/post/the-agpl), i.e. we, as them, want that
fiware users can use fiware (i.e.  connect their applications to fiware)
without considering them derivative work.

so, honestly, we would prefer to keep the current wording.

ciao,
stefano
