Skype vs. GPL

Posted by Phil Wolff on May 7, 2008 06:22 PM |

Fun thing to do in Munich Thursday morning: watch Skype argue in court against Harald Welte that the GPL open source software license doesn't apply to the Linux operating system embedded in Skype's SMC WSKP 100 Wi-Fi phone. Welte writes "Skype is arguing against the validity of the GPL as a whole, asserting that it is violating anti-trust regulation and similarly strange claims."
