Moderated by Karen Copenhaver, Black Duck Software
With more than 60 Open Source licenses in use, it's difficult for attorneys to keep up, much less software developers not trained in the law. Many common myths have arisen around what's "kosher" in terms of reuse of OSS, especially when the software being developed is proprietary. During this BOF, we'll discuss topics such as new trends in OSS licensing, dig into how to manage multiple licenses and talk about how Open Source Review Committees are working out for many companies.
