GPLV2 license is to be verified in court by practical case

GNU general public License (version 2) is one of the most widely used open source licenses and is widely used in Linux distributions and open source applications. But although the GPL has been used for decades, it has never been validated on the legal system. Many cases that violate GPL licenses are not prosecuted, so the power of the license is actually unproven. Reports from Opensource.com say the move will change.

The absence of a court decision on a violation of the license will vary, resulting from the 5 interrelated disputes arising from Versata Software, Inc. ("Versata") (whose parent company is Trilogy development Corporation is also involved, but mainly versata) and Ameriprise Financial, Inc. ("Ameriprise")

We are very much looking forward to this court case to help with details of what derivative works and how the GPL affects software patents, and even how other licenses are interpreted. This article is edited by "Www.zrnkyy.com"
