Title: Open Source Software Law
Description: 'Open Source Software Law explores the formal and legal aspects of two revolutionary views of software development and distribution: that software should be offered to users with open access to the source code and that end users should be freely able to modify, copy, or redistribute the software they have legally acquired. The book examines an innovative legal response to the conflict between copyright law and digital technology, and includes an analysis of the legal regime that an increasing number of software developers have come to prefer when developing and distributing software on-line.'--Jacket
