2 Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form for which
3 the source code and certain other rights normally reserved for copyright holders are provided
4 under a software license that permits users to study, change, and improve the software.
5 Some open-source software is available within the public domain. It is very often developed in a
6 public, collaborative manner. Besides, open-source software is the most prominent example of
7 open-source development. The term open-source software originated as part of a marketing
8 campaign for free software.
9 Licensing
10 A license defines the rights and obligations that a licensor grants to a licensee. Open-Source
11 licenses grant licensees the right to copy, modify and redistribute source code (or content). These
12 licenses may also impose obligations; for example, modifications to the code that are distributed
13 must be made available in source code form, an author attribution must be placed in a program
14 using that Open Source, etc.
15 Authors initially derive a right to grant a license to their work based on the legal theory that upon
16 creation of a work What the authors are granting
17 when they grant a license to copy, modify and redistribute their work is the right to use the
18 authors’ copyrights. Authors grants the right of usage; however, they still retain ownership of
19 those copyrights.
20 When authors contribute to an Open-Source project (e.g., Apache.org)
Some Open-Source
23 projects do not take contributed code under a license, but actually require (joint) assignment of
24 the authors’ copyright in order to accept code contributions into the project (e.g., OpenOffice.org
25 and its Joint Copyright Assignment agreement).
26 Placing code (or content) in the public domain is a way of waiving an author’s (or owner’s)
27 copyrights in that work. No license is granted, and none is needed, to copy, modify or redistribute
28 a work in the public domain.
29 Examples of free software license / open-source licenses include Apache License, BSD license,
30 GNU General Public License, GNU Lesser General Public License, MIT License, Eclipse Public
31 License and Mozilla Public License.
