f Episode 0x09: Copyleft, -or-later, and Basics of Compatibility By faif.us Published On :: Tue, 15 Feb 2011 10:30:00 -0500 Bradley and Karen discuss types of copyleft generally and introduce the basics of license compatibility and -or-later clauses. Show Notes: Segment 0 (00:38) This show discusses copyleft and basic issues of license compatibility (04:09) Karen mentioned an episode of the old Software Freedom Law Show, Episode 0x08, where Bradley and Karen discussed selecting a FLOSS license and what the various options are. (04:45) license compatibility 06:28 Bradley incorrectly said that the original Emacs license didn't have the word General in it. However, the other explanations appear to be correct. There's a useful history page that someone wrote about the history of GPL. It appears the non-general GNU copylefts existed from 1984-1988. (06:57) Karen noted that the Library GPL was renamed to the Lesser GPL which happened in 1999. (09:30) Bradley mentioned that when he and RMS worked on the GNU Classpath Exception, Bradley suggested it be called the Least GPL. (10:38) GPL doesn't have a choice of law clause. If another copyleft does, it surely is incompatible with the GPL. (14:17) AGPLv3 § 13 and GPLv3 § 13 explicitly make themselves compatibility with each other, which Bradley calls compatibility by fiat. (15:40) Karen mentioned that the Mozilla Public License § 13 has a section about multiple licensed code (16:50). Bradley mentioned that Mozilla Firefox uses a combinatorial license: (GPL|LGPL|MPL), which is a disjunctive tri-license. (19:00). Bradley mentioned that the old Software Freedom Law Show Episode 0x17 discussed compatibility of permissively licensed software and copylefted software. (20:22) Apache Software License 2.0 was likely the first FLOSS license to have an explicit patent licensing provision (23:40) Bradley and Karen discussed the fact that -only vs. -or-later are options with the GPL, while they are not with other copylefts, such as CC-By-SA.

f Episode 0x0B: Free Software Project Non-Profit Existence By faif.us Published On :: Tue, 15 Mar 2011 10:30:00 -0400 Bradley and Karen have an introductory discussion on how non-profit governance interacts with Free Software projects and what issues are important for developers who want their project to have a non-profit existence. Show Notes: Segment 0 (00:37) Bradley and Karen began the discussion by commenting on this blog post by Andy Updegrove about non-profit governance. (01:50) Bradley and Karen tend to agree that non-profit settings are better places to foster and help Free Software development. (03:40) Bradley mentioned that Roland McGrath wrote GNU C Library (and other GNU programs) while working as an employee at the FSF, and many of those programs are now often maintained by Red Hat (or other company's) developers, under the auspices of the GNU project, as overseen by the FSF. (04:50) Corporate form and organization questions should be secondary to project leadership ones. (09:50) One of the most important things is to have an organization in a place where people are willing to do the work to keep the organization going. (20:10) Enthusiasm to keep the organization running is the most important resource for running the organization. (22:26) Send feedback and comments on the cast to <oggcast@faif.us>.
