|
This one-day course presents the details of five different GPL compliance
|
||||||
|
cases handled by FSF's GPL Compliance Laboratory. Each case offers unique
|
||||||
|
insights into problems that can arise when the terms of GPL are not
|
||||||
|
properly followed, and how diplomatic negotiation between the violator and
|
||||||
|
the copyright holder can yield positive results for both parties.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
This course also includes a unit on the ethical considerations for
|
||||||
|
attorneys who want to represent clients that make use of or sell Free
|
||||||
|
Software products.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Attendees should have successfully completely the course, a ``Detailed
|
||||||
|
Study and Analysis of GPL and LGPL'', as the material from that course
|
||||||
|
forms the building blocks for this material.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The course is of most interest to lawyers who have clients or employers
|
||||||
|
that deal with Free Software on a regular basis. However, technical
|
||||||
|
managers and executives whose businesses use or distribute Free Software
|
||||||
|
will also find the course very helpful.
