Mueller: The OIN's Linux System
[Announcements] Posted Jul 28, 2010 13:03 UTC (Wed) by ris

Florian Mueller comments on a recent announcement by the Open Invention Network (OIN). "In other words, if you become an OIN licensee, you make your own patents available on those terms and get everyone else's on the same terms, but you can still use your patents against fellow OIN licensees (or they can use theirs against you) if the patents are used for a purpose outside the scope of "the Linux System.""
