FLOW Module: Methodology
General Objective and Disclaimer:
1. The information provided in this course is intended to strengthen your self-directed learning as individuals and in teams to enable more effective communication between you and your colleagues, including your lawyer(s), on a variety of topics associated with the intellectual capital management of free/libre/open works.
2. Laws and regulations govern the provision of "legal advice" in each jurisdiction. Neither the course coordinator nor the guest authorities serve in any way as proxies or substitutes for your organization's lawyer(s). So at risk of sounding defensive right off the bat: TINLA: This is not legal advice; IANYL: I am not your lawyer; and IANAL: I am not a lawyer.
3. Nothing represented in the syllabus can be assumed to represent views of a particular individual or organization, even when an organization hosts and pays for delivery of an instance of the course.
4. This course syllabus is shared under the most recent versions of both the CC-BY-SA http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/legalcode and GNU-FDL http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/fdl.html licenses. If you have never actually read those licenses, please take a few minutes to do so.
