Linux Foundation adds ace open-source attorneys to team
The Linux Foundation Wednesday revealed that two attorneys well-known in the open-source community will make up the legal team for the group, which is aimed at protecting the interests of Linux in the community.
Karen Copenhaver and Andrew Updegrove will serve as attorneys for the foundation, which was created in January with the merger of the Open Source Development Labs and the Free Standards Group. The group's mission is to promote, protect, and standardize the operating system created by Linus Torvalds.
Copenhaver and Updegrove are no strangers to the Linux and open-source community. Copenhaver, an expert on open-source licensing, is a partner in the Boston firm Choate. Updegrove is a partner and founder of Gesmer Updegrove in Boston, and is best known for blogging about open source and open standards on his Standards Blog on the Consortiuminfo.org Web site he created.
