As far as our understanding goes GPLv3 Affero is specifically written for Web-Applications.
("The Free Software Foundation has recommended that the GNU AGPLv3 be considered for any software that will commonly be run over a network.")
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affero_General_Public_License
In our opinion GPLv3 is clear enough. Paragraph 6, subparagraph d:
You may convey a covered work in object code form under the terms of sections 4 and 5, provided that you also convey the machine-readable Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, in one of these ways:
[...]
d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no further charge. You need not require recipients to copy the Corresponding Source along with the object code. If the place to copy the object code is a network server, the corresponding Source may be on a different server (operated by you or a third party) that supports equivalent copying facilities, provided you maintain clear directions next to the object code saying where to find the Corresponding Source. Regardless of what server hosts the Corresponding Source, you remain obligated to ensure that it is available for as long as needed to satisfy these requirements.
