Consensus about the Academic Free License ("AFL") v3.0



Hello debian-legal regulars,
I would need to ask your consensus opinion on the non-freeness of the
Academic Free License ("AFL") v3.0.

My personal conclusion is that this license includes non-free
restrictions and is also problematic with respect to Debian mirror
infrastructure.
My own analysis [1][2] of the AFL v3.0 was sent to debian-legal on
September 2012 and received no rebuttal.

[2] https://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2012/09/msg00082.html

I then proceeded to file the bug report against subversion, but it was
closed [3] with the request to form consensus on debian-legal (which I
think was already formed, since nobody objected to my analysis...).

Could you please explicitly express your agreement with my analysis?
Thanks for any help you may provide.
