OpenLogic Launches Open Source Fulfillment Center
OpenLogic, Inc., a provider of enterprise open source software solutions encompassing hundreds of open source packages, today announced Open Source Fulfillment Center, an OpenLogic service that helps companies ensure compliance with open source licenses and avoid lawsuits such as happened with fourteen well known consumer electronics manufacturers this week who are alleged to have violated terms of the GPLv2. "Companies that distribute open source software under certain licenses must also offer source code, and the instructions needed to build the object code," said Jason Haislmaier, a well-known open source lawyer and partner at Holme, Roberts and Owen, LLP. "This week's copyright infringement lawsuit by the Software Freedom Law Center (SFLC) filed against 14 well known consumer electronics manufacturers underscores the importance of understanding and complying with all the open source software embedded in your products." Although launching this service officially today, OpenLogic has offered its Open Source Fulfillment Center to larger clients for some time. |
