[Google Joins OIN]
,----[ Quote ]
| You'll often hear members of our open source team say, "Every
| time you use Google, you're using Linux." It's absolutely true. Check
| a Google engineer's workstation, and you'll probably find it's running
| Linux. Do a search on Google.com, and a Linux server will return your
| results. Ever since Google got its start, Linux has given us the power
| and flexibility we need to serve millions of users around the world.
|
| In turn, we feel a strong responsibility to the Linux community, and
| we're always looking for creative ways to put our resources in the
| hands of Linux developers. That's why today we became a licensee of
| the Open Invention Network (OIN), an innovative patent-sharing
| organization founded to create a legally protected environment for
| anyone who works with Linux.
|
| The concept behind OIN is simple. All OIN licensees, including
| participants such as IBM, Oracle, NEC and Sony, agree to cross-license
| their Linux-related patents to the others free of charge. Patent
| issues therefore become a much smaller concern inside the community,
| and OIN members can focus their energy on writing and releasing
| software rather than vetting their code for intellectual property
| issues. It's the legal equivalent of taking a long, deep breath.
