Open source isn't just for software developers. In fact, there is a large legal community that is focusing on licenses, intellectual property, legislations and more to understand how these all apply to open source, and what is enforceable and how. However, law and legislations develop and evolve on a very different pace than technology and open source, which makes the intersection of these areas rather tricky. Have you faced any challenges throughout your journey?
In this My Open Source Experience podcast episode Ildiko and Phil explore the intersection of law and open source with Ria Farrell Schalnat. Ria started out as a computer programmer, then she ventured over to the field of law, but always stayed close to tech through copyright, intellectual property, and eventually open source. Ria has a comprehensive understanding of these areas and shares some of her experiences throughout her career journey that made a difference for her and the law firms and companies she worked for.
