For the second year in a row I have the privilege to speak at the ITECHLAW Asia conference. This year the event takes place in Bangalore. Again this year my presentation will be on open source. The title is “Distribution in Open Source” and I am trying to give an overview of how the concept and definition of distribution is understood differently in different open source licenses and under different legal system. Of course, the reason why this is an important topic is because the copyleft provision in different open source licenses in particular in the General Public license is triggered when modifications to the original code is distributed by the licensee.
