Anytime/Web - OpenSource Due Diligence in M&A and Financing

On February 10, 2010 the Linux Foundation and the Open Source Initiative held a Strategic Planning Session for lawyers active in support of adoption of free and open source software. The purpose of the meeting was to identify key legal issues that will impact the development and adoption of free and open source software in 2010 and beyond.
Karen Copenhaver, partner at Choate Hall & Stewart and Counsel for the Linux Foundation and Mark Radcliffe, partner at DLA Piper and General Counsel for the Open Source Initiative (OSI), hosted the strategy session. Karen and Mark will report on the key topics that were discussed, who participated, and conclusions. In addition, we will focus on the status of developing a standard approach to delivery of information on the different components in software packages, the so called "Bill of Materials". The effort is being led by FOSSBazaar with Black Duck's support.
