If you are referring to the quotation by Ciaran O'Riordan in
Message-Id: <9labp793zq.fsf%40vorcha.compsoc.com>
then that is indeed from the GPL, not the AGPL.  (It was headed "Use
with the GNU Affero General Public License" while the AGPL section 13
is titled "Remote Network Interaction; Use with the GNU General Public
License.") => GPL3 itself seems to permit upgrading to the AGPL.

No, enhancements to your GPL3 work may be licensed under the GPL3 or
the AGPL3, depending on various things.

Is this why the question-gathering page previously linked as

seems to have vanished?
