Anyone who wants to use FOSS in compliance with license terms.

Modern software development projects are based on network of software module providers. The software providers will be:

  • Software platform (such as Operating System) providers
  • Middleware providers
  • Software development kit providers such as semiconductor vendors
  • Outsourcers of software development
  • ODM/OEM manufacturers

Some of those parties may be Open Source Software (OSS) development communities which will surely provide OSS. Some of them will also have possibilities to include OSS into their works. If some of them do not use OSS appropriately what will it become? In this session, we would like to consider the problem of software supply chain from view point of the appropriate use of OSS with some recommendations to the parties belonging to the supply chain.
