It just says AGPLv3, it doesn't say -only or -or-later (*).
I've seen these, but they are not explicit about -only or -or-later,
Sometimes, when asked for clarifications, upstreams clarifies such
ambigious phrasing to be -or-later, sometimes -only.  In this case, I'd
expect -only.  But I think it's best to just ask upstream.

(*) the convention for setup.py seems to be ‘not mentioned -> -only’, 
but hypothetical '-only' information could also easily have been lost
during writing the setup.py or an over-eager ‘abbreviating’ the
copyright/license headers.

Greetings,
Maxime.
