It is refreshing to read a book that lives up to its own hype! This is really a book for the businessman/woman that is looking for layman advice on the F/OSS legal stuff, written by a lawyer, and explaining both the technology background, the culture, the different laws (from an American perspective, of course) and the impact on business this may have. I am sure that a practicing lawyer may find faults in this book, or a fanatical F/OSS adherent with their own interpretation, but for its audience, this is exactly what is needed.
It is probably one of the best book on its subject to date.
Highly recommended as an introduction to F/OSS licensing from a corporate perspective.
