More Companies Join the L/GPL Cure Pledge

Six more companies have joined Red Hat, Facebook, Google and IBM (after the lead of Linux Foundation) to provide a cure period for GPL2 and LGPL2.1 violations.  This initiative was originally announced in November 2017.  See the press release from Red Hat.

It’s great to see momentum for this effort, which enables licensors and licensees to work out GPL and LGPL violations amicably.

My post on the initial announcement is here.
