Finding the right open-source savvy lawyer

,----[ Quote ]
| Some days, like it or not, you need a lawyer. For most business purposes, 
| picking the right law firm isn’t usually that big of a deal. 
| 
| Chances are you already have at least an idea of how to find a contract 
| lawyer, a tax law specialist or a real-estate attorney. But what if your 
| programmers are using open-source code that’s licensed under two different 
| licenses? What if you’re concerned with how a patent might affect open-source 
| software your company is already using? Or let’s say a company based in Utah 
| decides that you’ve put its proprietary code into Linux, who do you turn to 
| then? Now, what should you be looking for in a law firm?

| We just announced that we've settled the lawsuit we filed against Cisco a few
| months ago. (See this previous blog post for more information about that.)
| The press release explains the terms we've agreed to, but I wanted to take a
| moment to talk about what people can draw from this.
