Actually, Ext JS has a "FLOSS exception" that allows us to distribute
derivative works under a range of free software licenses, BSD and ASL
included. However, the Affero GPL is not on the list. If Aloha is seen
as a derivative work (haven't looked at the code so I don't know), the
AGPL wouldn't be an option with it:
