Fourth of five. Two lines.

- Copyright (C) 2026 LINUXexpert.org — AGPL-3.0-or-later.
+ Copyright (C) 2026 Coffey Labs — AGPL-3.0-or-later.

The badge mattered as much as the licence line

The header carried by LINUXexpert.org, linking to a site that is now
retired
— it 301s its articles to jcoffey.dev and answers 410 for everything
else. So the attribution badge on this project pointed somewhere that no longer
claims the work. It now reads by Coffey Labs and points at coffeylabs.org.
Both the badge image and the destination were checked and return 200.

What stays

Every other LINUXexpert-org here is a github.com URL — the source link baked
into .env.example, docker-compose.yml, web/src/lib/source.ts and
server/src/config.ts, plus issue and release links in the docs. Six of them,
unchanged. The AGPL source offer in the running app depends on that URL
resolving
, so rewriting it would be a licence-compliance problem rather than a
licence update.

LICENSE untouched — its only copyright is the FSF's on the AGPL text itself.
