Free Ebook on Open Source Legal Issues


Heads up:

Here's a free ebook on the legal issues around open source. With specific analyses of the various licenses. Written by practicing lawyers.

http://rosenlaw.com/oslbook.htm

Probably makes a good companion to Karl Fogel's "Producing Open Source Software."

Looks interesting, though it would have been nice if it was new enough to talk about the GPLv3 (since that seems to be the largest bit of confusion now).
