quelle explication ? bin, si leur licence est valable, elle a des clauses léonines donc non valables en droit européen, mais ce n'est pas l'AGPLv3

The Rest of AGPLv3§7
In addition to our beloved AGPLv3§7¶4, the rest of AGPLv3§7 includes some provisions designed for cross-FOSS-license compatibility. During the GPLv3 drafting process, a survey was conducted of all popular FOSS licenses. In the spirit of making sure no terms of GPLv3 inadvertently contradict a requirement in one of those licenses, AGPLv3§7(a-f) were devised for maximal cross-FOSS-license compatibility.
For example, the 3-Clause-BSD license's third clause states:
3. Neither the name of the copyright holder nor the names of its contributors may be used to endorse or promote products derived from this software without specific prior written permission
AGPLv3§7(d-e) ensure that clause can never be construed to be a further restriction.
The Onlyoffice Nasty Trick
Now, get ready for Onlyoffice's trick, which takes three moves:
First, Ascensio (who purports (unconfirmed) to be sole licensor of Onlyoffice), licenses Onlyoffice under AGPLv3.
Second, Ascensio — pursuant to AGPLv3§7(e) — adds a valid additional term that declines to grant trademark rights.
Third, Ascensio adds “badgeware” features to Onlyoffice — so that its trademarked logos are strewn throughout many locations in the UI.
Fourth, Ascensio incorrectly claims that AGPLv3§7(b) requires redistributors to preserve those very same trademark logos in all redistributions. The trick is “too clever by half”. Ascensio have indeed created a self-contradictory license, since the users are prohibited from displaying the trademarked logo, yet the users are also forbidden to remove the code that displays that trademark logo.
En clair : le logo OnlyOffice, ce n'est pas Ascensio (l'auteur) et ne vaut pas attribution en tant que tel (hormis pour le produit de cette entreprise)
vala plié, plus rien à voir, merci de mettre OnlyOffice et son logo en libre pour pouvoir le redistribuer correctement à ses clients, merci Ascensio d'avoir joué et contribué au libre correctement, maintenant, on va pouvoir revenir à de vraies activités et promouvoir des formats libres et ouverts avec des logiciels libres, merci, vraiment.
