Free Software law discussion list created

Author: JT Smith

Posted on LWN.net: As a followup to a free software law summit hosted by Bruce Perens
of HP September, 2001, a mailing list to address issues of free
software legal issues has been created, fsl-discuss@lists.alt.org.

This list satisfies an unmet need within the free software
community. While there are discussions oriented toward specific
legal issues such as the OSI’s license-discuss submissions review
list, Free-Sklyarov list and DVD-discuss, and there are general
discussions for free software and free software business, there is
no discussion that focusses on general legal aspects of free
software.
