OSWALD Newsletter Archives (by issue #, click to view)
The Open Source Law Weekly Digest or OSWALD first launched late in 2002. Since then it has been regularly providing updates on all things open source related. The focus of this newsletter is on business, rather than technical developments in open source. Another strong component of the newsletter is IP news, as it is of interest to me and has an effect on open source.

Welcome to the Open Source Law Weekly Open Source Digest (OSWALD)
In the EU there's official recognition of the role that open source plays in growth. Quite a contrast to the benign neglect we get from Government in Australia. A lot of interesting IP stories, including some commentary on the speak for yourself app, which had been taken off air because of a patent claim. There's a marked increase in patent trolling over the past 5 years according to another study.

Microsoft's 'Do Not Track' Plan Is In Tatters As Advertisers Vow To Ignore It http://www.businessinsider.com/microsofts-do-not-track-plan-is-in-tatters-as-advertisers-vow-to-ignore-it-2012-10
Microsoft's "do not track" (DNT) plan for Internet Explorer 10 -- the browser will launch with ad targeting and tracking turned off by default -- will likely be ignored by the advertisers it is designed to curtail, an ad lobby group confirmed yesterday. [OSL: I find this hullaballoo over do not track as default very strange]

http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2012-10-12/google-antitrust-suit-said-to-be-urged-by-ftc-staffers.html
Google is by no means the only smartphone company with standard-essential patents. But when it agreed to buy Motorola Mobility for $12. 5 billion, Google picked up 17,000 patents, including a large trove of important patents relating to wireless devices that Motorola had committed to license.
It's official: Open source is an engine for growth http://www.infoworld.com/d/open-source-software/its-official-open-source-engine-growth-204661
The man responsible for that allocation is the deputy mayor of Paris, Jean-Louis Missika; it was especially appropriate for him to break the news of how open source has benefited the city. Using data from a PwC survey of 27 international cities known for their business power, Missika reported that Paris is second only to Beijing in economic strength, third in intellectual capital (behind Stockholm and Toronto), and of course first in quality of life.

HathiTrust E-Library Has Shield in Fair Use http://www.courthousenews.com/2012/10/11/51196.htm
In September 2011, several authors and writers' advocacy groups sued HathiTrust, a library partnership organization, and several universities for teaming up with Google to provide full-text access to so-called "orphan works" whose copyright owners could not be located.
And the winner is . . . http://niederfamily.blogspot.com/2012/10/and-winner-is.html
Now, as part of their settlement, they’ve agreed to a licensing situation. This decision expedited the return of their app to the marketplace by several months (if not longer) and closed out a court case that was likely stressful and expensive . . . but it also seems to mean that they have agreed to pay a fee for something that they believe doesn’t infringe in the first place.
Top Rackspace lawyer: "We'd love to get rid of software patents" http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2012/10/top-rackspace-lawyer-wed-love-to-get-rid-of-software-patents/
"Once you reach a certain size, you become more of a target," Alan Schoenbaum told us in a recent interview. Schoenbaum is the general counsel of Rackspace, which achieved $1 billion in revenue for the first time last year. He said that patent litigation against the San Antonio company has "accelerated over the last two years. "

Eric Schmidt: Android-Apple Is the Defining Fight in the Industry Today http://allthingsd.com/20121010/eric-schmidt-android-apple-is-the-defining-fight-in-the-industry-today/
“These patent wars are death,” Schmidt said, noting that software is always overlapping, and that there are an estimated 200,000 patents covering the software industry.
Patent trolling nearly doubled in five years, study finds http://news.cnet.com/8301-13578_3-57529996-38/patent-trolling-nearly-doubled-in-five-years-study-finds/
According to a new study published today by University of California Hastings College of the Law, lawsuits filed by patent trolls -- or as they are re-categorized "patent monetizers" -- saw a dramatic increase between 2007 to 2011.
Do it “on the Internet,” get a patent, sue an industry—it still works http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2012/10/do-it-on-the-internet-get-a-patent-sue-an-industry-it-still-works/
The slide that defense lawyers showed to the jury read: “This isn’t new. ” In a patent case, it could have been a smoking gun—after all, it was written by the inventors themselves. They were describing their business, Nexchange, to a San Francisco conference back in 2000; it was three years before they received their first patent and turned their focus to litigation.
Cisco, Motorola, Netgear Team Up To Expose Wifi Patent Bully http://www.techdirt.com/blog/wireless/articles/20121009/01444620656/cisco-motorola-netgear-team-up-to-expose-wifi-patent-bully.shtml
Last year, we wrote about a crazy patent troll, named Innovatio, who had sued a ton of restaurants and hotels, claiming that anyone who used WiFi was violating its patents. It was even claiming that individuals who use WiFi at home infringed too -- but that it wouldn't go after them "at this time. " Instead, it preferred to focus on shaking down tons of small businesses, offering to settle for $2,500 to $3,000 -- which is cheaper than hiring a lawyer to fight it, no matter how bogus.
Judge tells copyright troll to put up or shut up on porn lawsuits http://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2012/10/judge-tells-copyright-troll-to-put-up-or-shut-up-on-porn-lawsuits/
Critics charge that the plaintiffs in these cases have no intention of actually pursuing the lawsuits in court. Instead, they allegedly seek as many settlements as possible without regard for whether the targets are guilty or innocent. This summer, a California judge referred to Malibu's lawsuits in that state as "essentially an extortion scheme. "
Twitter: It’s time for patent trolls to bear the costs of frivolous lawsuits http://gigaom.com/2012/10/08/twitter-time-for-trolls-to-pay-full-price-for-patent-mischief/
Still, even meritless lawsuits cost us money in attorney fees, and force our engineers to spend time with lawyers rather than improving our product. For example, we recently won a case regarding U. S. Patent No. 6,408,309, entitled “Method and System for Creating an Interactive Virtual Community of Famous People. ” After a trial before a jury, we managed to prove that we didn’t infringe and that the asserted claims from the patent were invalid. This patent was “invented” by a patent lawyer, Dinesh Agarwal. According to his own testimony at trial, Mr. Agarwal had no computer science or programming background, and he thought up the whole idea while he was shopping for groceries.
A Closer Look at the ‘Chaos’ of the American Patent System http://abovethelaw.com/2012/10/a-closer-look-at-the-chaos-of-the-american-patent-system/

Apple puts money where its mouth is, pays for Swiss railway clock design http://arstechnica.com/apple/2012/10/apple-puts-money-where-its-mouth-is-pays-for-swiss-railway-clock-design/
Apple's designers apparently liked the iconic Swiss railway clock so much—with its sweeping red second hand that looks like a railway signal flag—that it essentially copied the design for the iPad's new Clock app, introduced in iOS 6. [OSL: sigh]
Vringo Upside Overstated, Risks Understated http://seekingalpha.com/article/923661-vringo-upside-overstated-risks-understated

India Patent Authority Has Big Pharma Worried http://www.law.com/corporatecounsel/PubArticleCC.jsp?id=1202574815027&slreturn=20120914234253
When the government of India revoked U. S. drug maker Pfizer Inc. ’s local patent for its cancer drug Sutent last week, it marked yet another loss for Big Pharma in an escalating patent war between multinational pharmaceutical companies and the governments of developing nations.

LED Tech Development LLC has filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Apple. The patent infringement lawsuit concerns four granted patents that they claim Apple's iPad 3 and MacBook Pro infringe upon. Charles Lemaire, one of the original inventors noted on all four patents in this lawsuit has also been credited with patents for Lockheed Martin, Nuance Communications and other major companies.

Why Apple vs. Google is the Most Important Battle in Technology http://business.time.com/2012/10/12/why-apple-vs-google-is-the-most-important-battle-in-tech/
It’s a war between two fundamentally different visions for the future of computing, described in simplistic terms as “closed” vs. “open. ” Apple’s model is end-to-end control over the iPhone process, from hardware to software to the mobile applications that it must approve for sale in the App Store. Google’s model has been to distribute the Android system for free to the developer community at large, and let a thousand flowers bloom.

Some of the games in this series have yet to arrive on Kickstarter, but have campaigns planned for the near future. Others are currently underway, while more still have successfully completed their Kickstarter campaigns.
