How do you manage the inclusion of an Open Source component within proprietary software?

We help our customers who order or develop specific computer programs to take into account and deal with the inclusion of open source components in legal terms:

• by listing these components,
• identifying the associated licences: free, semi-free and proprietary;
• by checking the content of licences and the compatibility of these licences with each other and the contaminating effect of free licences;
• by regulating the rights and obligations relating to derivative works.
