In chronological order, here is advice from some actual attorneys (Patrick Igoe and Mark Webbink): http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20110614184205441 http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=20110615111436917 http://www.groklaw.net/article.php?story=2011061608115990 Of course, as the first article notes: Developers should not take legal advice from the Internet, and especially not from a non-attorney blog or a software development podcast. ------------------ Some sort of legal defense fund and pooled defense would seem like an excellent idea, but somebody with standing on this issue would need to talk to qualified legal counsel about whether this works in this case, what are the options for funding it, etc. Some sort of "Kick Lodsys Where It Counts" Kickstarter campaign might be fun. :-) -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android App Developer Books: http://commonsware.com/books -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
