Graeme West writes "A group of tech lawyers has announced the release of the inaugural issue of the International Free and Open Source Software Law Review (IFOSS L. Rev.) — a place for high-level discussion of issues and best practice in the implementation of FOSS. You can view the announcement, or skip straight to Volume 1, Issue 1. A downloadable PDF file is also available. The journal is open access, and articles are CC licensed."

I don't remember clicking on the EULA for this crap. Why do I have to be bound by what "a group of lawyers" thinks "best practices" are? Oh wait, I don't...

You must be new here, despite that ID number. Slashdotters don't rtfa. They barely rtfs.

Yeah, I know that even something that only involves two countries could be called "international", just like you could create a "internet" containing only two networks.
Or a World Series [wikipedia.org] where teams from two countries compete.

You know how hard it was to slashdot a site when there were only five of us?
Instead of having 5 million people each load a site once we had to each do it a million times...
