Tonight's talk should be of interest to anyone who has considered working on an
open-source project and I'm looking forward to it.
Following Mark's talk we will have our elections which are disputed this time around.
Come ready to vote!
See you there,
A.C.

Title: Open Source Licensing Case Study: Midonet
Description:
Midokura released Midonet under the Apache license in 2014. This talk will explain why
Midokura released the software under an open source license and why it picked Apache. In
order to understand the options, the business models used with GPL and Apache will be
discussed, which will include comparing the rights granted under the two licenses. Midonet
will also be explained, at a very high level, to provide context for the decision to make
it open source. Please note that this talk should not be construed as legal advice.
The NBLUG elections will be held directly following the talk. A nominations E-Mail will
be sent to the talk list with additional information.
