CASE: ITST

• eFaktura (eInvoice)• Electronic invoices to, from

and between public agencies

• Core service: UDDI registry for webservice to identify senders and

65


Udfordringer• Two applications provided by

NITA to user (e.g. ERP vendors)

• API between users’ ERPs and UDDI WS

• Reference implementation integrating API with ERP

• NITA wanted to release the application under an OS license

66


Mål

• Satisfying the politicians• Wide adoption of UDDI• Community based

improvement of the API• Many vendors should

integrate API into their ERP

The Mindstorm story


LEGO goes open source

1 May 2006. LEGO press release

Hackers, Get Ready! LEGO Group Announces Open Source Firmware, D e v e l o p e r K i t s f o r L E G O ® MINDSTORMS® NXT

Consumer-directed robotics experience creation to enter “NXT” phase with open firmware, Software, Hardware and Bluetooth Developer Kits to launch in August


Background● Mindstorms robots launched in 1998● The best-selling LEGO product ever● Huge Mindstorm community● LEGO was and is not a software

company● Only minor upgrades to the firmware● Several parallel Mindstorms OS’s


Challenges● LEGO was not comfortable with

“openness”● LEGO has been and is extremely reliant

on strong IPRs● ”You don't give away IPRs for free”● Turbulent period for LEGO in general● Third party software included


Solution● Embrace User driven innovation● Open source as the enabler● Third party permission for

redistribution under an OS license● Choice of license

− ”Genuine” open source licence− Permissive (Academic) or Copyleft

(reciprocal license)


The OS license choice● Mozilla Public license v. 1.1● Weak copyleft● Modification is limited altering

the files● “I did not understand GPL v.2”● LEGO was only concerned with

modifications of the actual files

73


The “beauty” of the solution!• Huge press coverage and goodwill• Large number of downloads of

code• Much more “intelligence” in the

bricks• Convincing strategy towards

competitors• Option to “close” the code again• Many more bricks sold!

74


Dual licensing


CASE: MySQLDual-licensing

• The software company perspective• The same code is licensed under two

different licences:– MySQL Community Server: GPL v.

2 with FOSS exception– MySQL Enterprise: Commercial

license

76


Owner's prerogative

● The owner can decide to release under any and as many terms she likes

● Dual licensing is only possible for owner's own modfications

● Or assigned modifications● Control is necessary to mitigate liability● ”Closing in” the code again


Copyright and control• MySQL has exclusive copyright

to the code• MySQL controls and certifies the

code• The GPL does not give any

rights to use MySQLs trademarks

78


Why pay?

• Certification of the code• Warranties• Maintenance and support• Copyleft exemption

79


Still not convinced?

• MySQL AB was in 2008 bought by Sun Microsystem, Inc. for approximately USD $1 billion in total consideration

80


Solutions• API

– Copyleft– Mozilla public license v. 1.1

(maybe EUPL v. 1.1)• Reference implementation

– Permissive licence– FreeBSD license
