Overview: This article discusses two goals first it suggests a possible reason why parts of legal academia have reacted so favorably to the open source philosophy and second it takes a closer look at the philosophy itself and try to show that it is conceptually flawed. It explores how intellectual property law is currently applied to the two aspects of software.
