| If you've held back from developing open source or free software projects because you don't understand the implications of the various licenses, you're not alone. Many developers believe in releasing their software freely, but have hesitated to do so because they're concerned about losing control over their software. Licensing issues are complicated, and both the facts and fallacies you hear word-of-mouth can add to the confusion. This book helps you make sense of the different options available to you. It focuses on annotated licenses, offering an explanation of how they compare and interoperate, and how license choices affect project possibilities. Written in clear language, the book answers such questions as: What rights am I giving up? How will my use of OS/FS licensing affect future users or future developers? Does a particular use of this software -such as combining it with proprietary software -leave me vulnerable to lawsuits? Following a quick look at copyright law, contracts, and the definition of "open, BSD, Apache and Academic Free licenses; The GPL, LGPL, and Mozilla licenses; The QT, Artistic, and Creative Commons licenses; Classic Proprietary licenses; Sun Community Source license and Microsoft Shared Source project. The book wraps up with a look at the legal effects - both positive and negative - of open source/free software licensing.
Licensing is a major part of what open source and free software are all about, but it's still one of the most complicated areas of law. Even the very simple licenses are tricky. This book bridges the gap between the open source vision and the practical implications of its legal underpinnings. | ||
