【摘要】：自从人类社会迈入信息时代以来,计算机产业一直都是我国信息产业发展的重中之重。衡量一个国家计算机产业发展的优劣,往往要看其中的软件产业发展的如何。当代中国,计算机已经渗透到生活工作的许多方面,而计算机软件,更是最大程度上是的人们的生活与学习变得更加快捷、方便。离开计算机软件,可谓是寸步难行。全球各国的法律制度对计算机软件都有相应的知识产权法律制度予以保护,这虽然起到了很好保护软件开发者正当权利的作用,但同时也产生了一系列诸如软件生产商垄断,软件价格过高,更新速度慢,难以发现软件的漏洞缺陷逐渐凸显出来。开源软件的出现恰好解决了垄断性商业软件所带来的一系列负面影响。举个耳熟能详的例子,安卓手机现在在我国的手机市场份额已经超越了老对手苹果手机,他的操作系统正是以最有名的开源软件Linux为基础研发而成的。开源软件意义主要在于源代码对普通大众也是可见的,这代表了计算机工作者对智慧成果共享的追求。然而,开源软件并不能抛弃市场谈发展,所以开源软件在与市场结合时,往往会比传统的商业软件遭遇更多的法律风险。为了避免可能的法律纠纷,现阶段的开源软件开发者的做法通常是在发布一款开源软件时,附带开源软件许可证来规定软件用户的权利、义务以及相关使用范围,这样才能将开源软件更恰当的与法律制度相融合。但如何能将开源软件合理合法的置于我国法律制度当中,正是本文想要探索的问题,同时,我国软件行业也可借此开源运动的兴起,找到更好的行业突破口。本文正文分为五个部分:第一部分介绍开源软件与开源软件许可证的相关概念。第二部分,以开源软件知识产权保护为研究重点,深入分析在现有著作权法、专利权法以及商标法框架下开源软件所要面对的问题和如何利用现有知识产权制度进行自我保护,同时还对一些典型案例进行了分析。第三部分针对开源软件许可证问题详细分析其性质及保护机制,并针对法律纠纷案例中所涉及的焦点法律问题进行分析。第四部分在分析我国发展开源软件必要性的基础上提出了几点设想与建议。第五部分总结全文问并对其价值前景作出预测。
[Abstract]:Since the human society entered the information age, the computer industry has always been the most important part of the development of our country's information industry. To measure the advantages and disadvantages of a country's computer industry development, we often need to see how the software industry develops. Computers have permeated many aspects of life and work, and computer software, to the greatest extent, has become faster and more convenient for people to live and study. The legal systems of various countries around the world have a corresponding intellectual property legal system to protect computer software, although this has played a very good role in protecting the legitimate rights of software developers. But at the same time, there are also a series of software manufacturers monopoly, software prices are too high, the pace of renewal is slow, Vulnerabilities in software that are hard to find are becoming more and more obvious. The emergence of open source software just solves a series of negative effects of monopoly commercial software. Android phones now have a bigger market share in China than their old rivals, Apple. His operating system was developed on the basis of the most famous open source software, Linux. The significance of open source software is that the source code is also visible to the general public, which represents the computer workers' pursuit of sharing the fruits of wisdom. Open source software can not abandon the market talk about development, so when open source software is combined with the market, it often encounters more legal risks than traditional commercial software. In order to avoid possible legal disputes, At this stage, the practice of open source software developers is usually to include an open source software license to define the rights, obligations and scope of use of software users when releasing an open source software. Only in this way can open source software be more appropriately integrated with the legal system. However, how to put open source software in the legal system of our country reasonably and legally is exactly the problem this paper wants to explore, at the same time, This paper is divided into five parts: the first part introduces the concepts of open source software and open source software license. Focusing on the intellectual property protection of open source software, this paper analyzes in depth the problems faced by open source software under the framework of existing copyright law, patent law and trademark law, and how to use the existing intellectual property system to protect itself. At the same time, some typical cases are analyzed. The third part analyzes the nature and protection mechanism of open source software license in detail. In the fourth part, on the basis of analyzing the necessity of developing open source software in our country, some tentative ideas and suggestions are put forward. The fifth part summarizes the full text and puts forward some suggestions. Value prospects are predicted.
