Heh, it might be true, but I'm sure that lawyers that work in software companies screening the project BigCorp wants to use for potential licensing problems will share a laugh amongst them, but will then write to the boss saying: "It's risky, don't use that code".
- knowtheory 16y agoOh, i should make a distinction. Actual litigators have different jobs from corporate attorneys. Big corp legal departments are like corporate security teams. They don't want to see anything that could surprise them, and ideally they're going to lock your corporate environment down as tightly as they possibly can. Their job is to make sure no one else can screw with the way they've modeled the world.
