\section{Introduction}
\begin{frame}{Who? Why? How?}

  \begin{block}{Who is concerned? Why?}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item \empha{Developers}: to protect and share their work
      \item \empha{Users}: to fairly use others' work
      \item \empha{Everyone}: to protect and share their data \& results
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{How to proceed?}
    Constraints:
    \begin{itemize}
      \item research labs
      \item collaborative work
      \item different kinds of status
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

\end{frame}

\section{Legal side \& science policy}
\subsection{RTFM}
\begin{frame}{What are copyrights?}

  \begin{block}{Copyrights (in France)}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item In the French Law: \empha{Code de la Propriété Intellectuelle}
      \item Copyrights grants the creator of an original work exclusive rights to its \empha{use} and \empha{distribution}, for a limited time
      \item The work needs to be \empha{formatted}: ideas or concepts can't be protected
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{Two kind of rights (in France)}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item \empha{Moral rights} (\emph{droits moraux}):
        \begin{itemize}
          \item paternity right (\emph{droit de paternité})
          \item disclosure right (\emph{droit de divulgation})
          \item waiver/forfeiture right (\emph{droit de retrait})
          \item respect/integrity right (\emph{droit au respect de l'\oe{}uvre})
        \end{itemize}
      \item \empha{Property rights} (\emph{droits patrimoniaux}):
        \begin{itemize}
          \item exploitation rights (performance \& copy)
          \item you can make money out of them \& transfer them 
          \item temporary
        \end{itemize}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{What are \emph{software} copyrights?}

  \begin{block}{Differences with general copyrights:}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item Reduced moral rights: only \empha{paternity}
      \item Unless specified, you cannot:
        \begin{itemize}
          \item be opposed to modifications
          \item use your right to waive/forfeit
        \end{itemize}
      \item unless specified, property rights belong to \empha{your employer} (including documentation)
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{Property rights:}
    They can be established depending on:
    \begin{itemize}
      \item the authors
      \item their status and/or collaboration
      \item the contracts (of employment, command etc.)
      \item their labs
    \end{itemize}

    \empha{Important:} trainees supposedly own their property rights, contrary to employees
  \end{block}

\subsection{Why and how to use licenses?}
\begin{frame}{Why and how to use licenses?}

  \vspace{-.5em}
  \begin{block}{Why?}
    It gives a legal framework to \empha{protect}:
    \begin{itemize}
      \item the \empha{author}
      \item the \empha{users}: unless specify, using a software is a \empha{counterfeit}!
      \item the \empha{collaborators}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \vspace{-.5em}
  \begin{alertblock}{}
    \begin{center}\empha{Never} {\bfseries ever release a software without a license!}\end{center}
  \end{alertblock}
  \vspace{-.5em}

  \begin{block}{How?}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item if specified, follow your employer's policy
      \item put headers in your source files, with:
        \begin{itemize}
          \item name of the file \& of the software
          \item ``Copyrights'' followed by the owner of the property rights, the year(s), and the people who contributed to this piece of code
          \item main author(s) \& contact address
          \item license(s)
          \item \emph{(optional)} creation/last modification dates
        \end{itemize}
      \item put a license file or URL pointing to the license
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

\end{frame}

\subsection{Licenses \& science}
\begin{frame}{Licenses \& science: the Berlin Declaration}

  \begin{block}{Encouraging the Open Access Paradigm}
    ``\emph{Establishing open access as a worthwhile procedure ideally requires the active commitment of each and every individual producer of scientific knowledge and holder of cultural heritage. Open access contributions include \empha{original scientific research results}, \empha{raw data and metadata}, \empha{source materials}, \empha{digital representations of pictorial and graphical materials} and scholarly multimedia material.}''

    \begin{itemize}
      \item {\small \texttt{http://openaccess.mpg.de/286432/Berlin-Declaration}}
    \end{itemize}

  \end{block}

\end{frame}

\begin{frame}{Licenses \& science: reproducibility}

  \begin{block}{Science has to be reproducible}
    If we \empha{really} want reproducibility of our results, we must:
    \begin{itemize}
      \item \empha{share} our data
      \item \empha{share} our codes
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{Science Code Manifesto}
    \emph{\scriptsize Software is a cornerstone of science. Without software, twenty-first century science would be impossible. Without better software, science cannot progress.

    But the culture and institutions of science have not yet adjusted to this reality. We need to reform them to address this challenge, by adopting these five principles:

    \begin{itemize}
      \item[Code]: All source code written specifically to process data for a published paper must be available to the reviewers and readers of the paper.
      \item[Copyright]: The copyright ownership and license of any released source code must be clearly stated.
      \item[Citation]: Researchers who use or adapt science source code in their research must credit the code’s creators in resulting publications.
      \item[Credit]: Software contributions must be included in systems of scientific assessment, credit, and recognition.
      \item[Curation]: Source code must remain available, linked to related materials, for the useful lifetime of the publication. 
    \end{itemize}
    }

      \item {\scriptsize\texttt{http://sciencecodemanifesto.org/}}
    \end{itemize}

\section{Licenses for softwares}
\subsection{Free licenses}
\begin{frame}{Free licenses}
\emph{``Free as in `Freedom'.''} or \emph{``Think of `free speech', not `free beer'.''}

  \begin{block}{4 essentials freedoms:}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item[0] \empha{The freedom to run the program}, for any purpose.
      \item[1] \empha{The freedom to study how the program works, and change it so it does your computing as you wish}. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
      \item[2] \empha{The freedom to redistribute copies} so you can help your neighbor.
      \item[3] \empha{The freedom to distribute copies of your modified versions to others}. By doing this you can give the whole community a chance to benefit from your changes. Access to the source code is a precondition for this.
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{Keep in mind that:}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item a software is \emph{free} because of its \emph{free license}
      \item a \emph{free software} is not \emph{free of rights}
      \item a \emph{free software} can be \emph{not gratis}!
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Open source licenses}
\begin{frame}{Open source licenses}

  \begin{block}{Definition}
    \begin{enumerate}
      \item Free Redistribution
      \item Source Code
      \item Derived Works
      \item Integrity of The Author's Source Code
      \item No Discrimination Against Persons or Groups
      \item No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor
      \item Distribution of License
      \item License Must Not Be Specific to a Product
      \item License Must Not Restrict Other Software
      \item License Must Be Technology-Neutral
    \end{enumerate}
  \end{block}
\end{frame}

\subsection{Free vs. Open source}
\begin{frame}{Free vs. Open source}

  \begin{block}{So, what's the difference?}
    \begin{itemize}
      \item \empha{Philosophy}: \emph{``free software is a social movement''}, whereas \emph{``open source considers issues in terms of how to make software “better”—in a practical sense only''}
      \item \empha{In practice}: open source is more permissive and is also \emph{open} to downward spirals:
        \begin{itemize}
          \item \textbf{Linux kernel}: contains blob of binary code
          \item \textbf{Android}: sources of Android 3.x are withheld; Google policy: \emph{``Open source until it matters''}
        \end{itemize}
    \end{itemize}
  \end{block}

  \begin{block}{But\ldots}
    \ldots in most cases, \emph{open source softwares} are \emph{free softwares} anyway

\subsection{License flavours}
\begin{frame}[fragile]{License flavours}

    There are 3 main flavours of free/open licenses:
    \begin{block}{Strong copyleft:}
      \begin{itemize}
        \item all derived works inherit the license
        \item \empha{example}: GNU General Public License (GNU/GPL)
      \end{itemize}
    \end{block}
    
    \begin{block}{Weak copyleft:}
      \begin{itemize}
        \item \textbf{not} all derived works inherit the license
        \item \empha{example}: GNU Lesser General Public License (GNU/LGPL)
      \end{itemize}
    \end{block}
    
    \begin{block}{Copyfree:}
      \begin{itemize}
        \item you can do \textbf{anything you want} with the program or its source
        \item \empha{example}: Berkeley Software Distribution License (BSD)
      \end{itemize}
    \end{block}

  {\scriptsize
