Hi Van, excellent, I very much enjoyed reading it. > Mark R. Patterson, Must Licenses Be Contracts? Consent and Notice in > Intellectual Property, 40 Fla. St. U. L. Rev. 105 (2012) > Available at: http://ir.lawnet.fordham.edu/faculty_scholarship/593 It references, > Open Source Licensing > Software Freedom and Intellectual Property Law > by Lawrence Rosenwith > Available at: https://rosenlaw.com/open-source-licensing-software-freedom-and-intellectual-property-law/ which touches the same subject, which I also very much enjoyed reading. These two books strengthened my conclusion, that my two recent threads on this mailing list, - [License-discuss] Are limitation/disclaimer of warranty clauses legally non-binding due to missing browsewrap/clickwrap agreement? [1] - [License-discuss] GPL developer protections: Is limitation/disclaimer of warranty legally non-binding? [2] are not totally unreasonable. Kind regards, Patrick [1] http://lists.opensource.org/pipermail/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org/2019-March/020385.html [2] http://lists.opensource.org/pipermail/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org/2019-March/020387.html _______________________________________________ License-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.opensource.org/mailman/listinfo/license-discuss_lists.opensource.org
