After reading more, I have more respect for the FSA than Open Source. Seems I owe Freedom Software Foundation an apology for not having read the thin lines that get blurred between FSF and OSS, they have clearly defined their views. Free Software Foundation defines FREE SOFTWARE as FREEDOM and not FREE BEER! Bottomline. Really nice, these people seem to be following ethical lines of why they started out.

 

Is OSS following ethical lines? I'm reading further, things like GPL keep coming into the research. If you practise commerce on Open Source, what are your limitations of licenses that built the OSS?

 

A question to LINUX followers : Why did Linus build a Unix-Like kernel? Was the Unix Kernel not released to public use or what were the restrictions then?

 

Interesting times ahead......but please share your inputs.  

 

 

Proprietary software seems is so easy to understand. As easy as our Mobile Developers going to see IP rights lawyers before they go see Telcom Operators?
