# Why Listen To Us?
|
||||
|
||||
+ FSF: Understanding the purpose and intent of the GPL.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
+ Conservancy & FSF:
|
||||
+ both enforce the GPL.
|
||||
+ if your client violates, you will hear from one of us.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Such access to drafters, interpreters, enforcers is likely highly unique.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Someday, someone in this room may (or already has) sit across the table
|
||||
from you in negotiations.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Our transparency does make your job easier.
|
||||
|
||||
# The Mindset of GPL
|
||||
|
||||
+ GPL protects software freedom.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Ultimate goal: make sure every user has the four freedoms.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Freedom to run the software.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Freedom to study and modify the software.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Freedom to share the software.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Freedom to distribute modified versions.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Every clause in GPL was designed to uphold one of these freedoms.
|
||||
+ Or, it's a compromise of drafting in adoption vs. freedom debate.
|
||||
|
||||
# Using Copyright
|
||||
|
||||
+ GPL is primarily a copyright license.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Software is copyrighted.
|
||||
|
||||
+ License grants key freedoms.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Requirement prohibit activities that take away freedoms.
|
||||
|
||||
+ General concept: copyleft.
|
||||
|
||||
+ Specific implementation: GPL
