Rob Tiller | OpenSource.com | December 26, 2013

The most-read posts this year on the Opensource.com 'Law' channel showed a strong interest in diverse legal issues in the open source world. Many readers were reaching out for a better understanding open source licensing and related questions, such as:

  • Why should I use an open source license?
  • How do I choose an license?
  • What are the courts doing in license disputes?

Looking ahead to 2014, I’ll boldly predict that software patents will be a highly discussed topic in our open source community.  [See Top 10 'Open' Law articles in 2013]
