Week 2
- Let's talk about Copyright and Open Source Licenses
- IANAL: "I Am Not A Lawyer"
- We're going to explore licensing from the POV of a developer participating in open projects
- Copyright
- Who created it, "owns" it.
- Set of exclusive rights granted to the work's creator
- "The right to copy," to produce or reproduce a work or substantial portion thereof
- Copyright is automatic when a work is created, you don't have to register it.
- Copyright in Canada
- Copyright Guide
- In a software project, there can be many copyright holders (e.g., many contributors), or all contributors may assign their copyright to the project (e.g., CLA, which we'll cover later)
- Licenses
- Rights, privileges, responsibilities, etc. applicable to someone other than the work's creator
- "Terms and Conditions"
- These must be granted by a copyright holder
- No License
- What can you do with code you find that has no license?
- what can I, can't I do?
- Public Domain
- SQLite, which is now used by literally everybody, see http://www.sqlite.org/famous.html
- Unlicense
- Consider some proprietary/closed End User License Agreements (EULA)
- Open Source Licenses
- The Open Source Definition
- Approved licenses by the Open Source Initiative: https://opensource.org/licenses
- Choose a License: https://choosealicense.com/
- Learning Licenses: BSD
- Family of Licenses, including 2-Clause BSD, 3-Clause BSD (aka New BDS), 4-Clause BSD
- "Why you should use a BSD style license for your Open Source Project"
- BSD Licenses code is usually compatible with other open/closed code, when you want to mix them.
- Example software projects licensed under the BSD License:
- Summary:
- You need to retain the license and copyright notice
- You can use it commercially or non-commercially (privately)
- You can distribute it freely
- You can modify it freely
Week 3
- Learning Licenses: MIT
- MIT License
- One of the most widely used licenses in Open Source
- Like the BSD License, nothing about patents (created before software was patentable in the US)
- Example software projects licensed under the BSD License:
- What is a bug?
- Let's look at some bugs
- Good First Bug
- Write a Blog post: read MIT License followed by The MIT License, Line by Line, and blog about 3 things you learned or found interesting, which perhaps differed from what you understood in your own reading of the license.
