Alhamdulillahtrabbil'alarnin, Puji Syukur Kehadirat Allah SWT atas ridho, perlindungan dan kesempatan yang diberikan-Nya. Shalawat dan salaam bag Nabi Muhammad SAW, sebagai pedoman dan inspirasi terbesar penulis, sehingga thesis tentang "Implikasi Hukum Lisensi Copyleft Terhadap Perlindungan Perangkat Lunak Sumber Terbuka (Open Source Software) di Indonesia" dapat diselesaikan. Terima kasih teriring dengan penuh rasa hormat dan bakti kepada Ayahanda (Sudarisman, SH) dan Ibunda (Dra. Sri Sudarmi) dengan segala upaya, doa, bantuan, motivasi serta kesabaran bag selesainya pendidikan pasca sarjana penulis. Perkembangan dunia hukum teknologi informasi yang semalun kompleks dengan segala perrnasalahan yang muncul seiring dengan semalun meningkatnya kebebasan dan kemudahan atas akses teknologi di dalarn masyarakat. Teknologi informasi masa kini bukan hanya sebagai gaya hdup tetapi sudah menjah bagian dari kebutuhan hidup manusia sehari-hari. Peran teknologi informasi yang semakin vital dan strategis dalarn bidang pemerintahan, ekonomi, bisnis, pendidikan, sosial, budaya, dan politik. Fitur-fitur canggih yang memberikan kenyamanan dan kemudahan semakin mudah dm murah di dapat menjah salah satu pemicu cepatnya perkembangan teknologi informasi yang merarnbah di semua kalangan masyarakat. Tuntutan kebutuhan teknolog informasi ymg beragam dan sangat besar memberikan peluang bisnis yang sangat menguntungkan bagi pelaku bisnis dibidang teknologi informasi terutama hbidang software yang sampai saat ini masih dikuasai oleh Negara maju seperti Amerikat Serikat melalui Microsoft. Pangsa pasar yang sangat luas dan tingkat kebutuhan yang sangat tinggi menajhkan pelaku bisnis dibidang software khususnya software yang berbayar menerapkan harga yang sangat tinggi atas produk ciptaannya dmana semuanya atas nama sebuah Sistem Hak Atas Kekayaan Intelektual khususnya Hak Cipta. Kondisi yang menyebabkan ketimpangan dalam ha1 hak untuk mendapatkan akses atas teknologi informasi antara negara maju dan negara dunia ketiga menyebabkan munculnya perlawanan atas Sistem HKI yang sudah ada diaman gerakan tersebut bukan hanya sekedar gerakan namun mulai menciptakan sebuah Ciptaan dalam ha1 ini so@are yang bertujuan untuk mengimbangi keberadaan software berbayar yang sudah ada, tetapi dengan memberikan kebebasan dalam ha1 pengembangan ciptaan, penggunaan, dan perbanyakan. Dengan demikian secara jelas bahwa gerakan tersebut yang menamakan diri sebagai open source movement dengan proyeknya open source software mencoba menjadikan batasan-batasan atas HKI khususnya hak cipta menjadi sebuah kebebasan. Sehingga ha1 ini menimbulkan munculnya sebuah gagasan tentang lisensi publik yang salah satunya adalah GNU General Pzablic Liscense yang dilahirkan oleh Free Software Foundation. Fenomena munculnya lisensi publik dalam dunia teknolog informasi khususnya software memberikan warna baru bagi perkembangan hukum teknologi informasi selngga memberikan inspirasi bagi penulis untuk meneliti lebih jauh mengenai implikasinya terhadap hukum hak cipta di Indonesia.

  • L'évolution Des Licences Libres Et Open Source : Critères, Finalités Et
    L’évolution des licences libres et open source : critères, finalités et complétude ? Benjamin JEAN Au premier regard, l’intérêt d’une étude historique ayant pour objet les licences libres n’est pas évident et l’on tend généralement, avec raison, à considérer que la véritable valeur du Libre réside dans les projets qui le composent (GNU-Linux, Firefox, LibreOffice, Wikipédia, etc.). Ainsi, complexes et hétérogènes, les documents contractuels associés ne seraient qu’une formalisation nécessaire, une attache obligatoire du Libre au sys- tème légal conséquente à la juridicisation de la société actuelle. Une telle approche nierait la place toute particulière des licences au sein du mouvement du Libre en cristallisant les tensions constitutives du sys- tème, assurant l’équilibre d’une équation aux multiples variables. Dès le départ, les licences libres se positionnent en rupture avec les usages tradi- tionnels attirant un nombre important d’« amateurs » (au regard de l’im- portance qu’ils y attachent et de leur grande connaissance du sujet, la plupart étant par ailleurs non juristes), une image qui dénote avec l’aus- térité souvent associée aux documents contractuels et remet en cause le monopole du juriste (lui-même souvent dépassé par la complexité d’un document aussi juridique que social). L’usage du droit s’éloigne donc de la technicité qui le caractérise aujourd’hui pour renouer avec sa mis- sion première d’organisation des relations sociales : formalisant les règles 277 278 Benjamin JEAN relatives aux rapports entre les contributeurs d’un projet et entre les com- munautés, assurant sécurité et une pérennité à leur collaboration.

Ensisijaisesti on keskitytty QGIS-ohjelmiston toimintaan ja sen käyttökelpoisuu- teen. Opinnäytetyö on syntynyt tekijän oman kiinnostuksen pohjalta avoimen lähde- koodin ohjelmiin sekä avoimeen aineistoon. Työssä on pyritty selvittämään tar- jolla olevia ohjelmistoja Open Source Geospatial-paikkatietoportaalista ja tes- taamaan ohjelmia käyttämällä avointa aineistoa. Työssä havaittiin QGIS-ohjelmiston laaja-alaisuus ja skaalattavuus eri käyttö- tarpeisiin, etenkin jos on valmis panostamaan ohjelmien koodaamiseen. Ohjel- man haittapuolena voidaan toisaalta pitää sen monipuolisuutta, joka vaatii pal- jon perehtymistä.

The main focus was on the viability of the QGIS software and its functions. The study was done because of the author’s own interest in the open source software and open data. The aim was to study the software available in the Open Source Geospatial portal and run tests using open data. In this study it was found that the QGIS software can be applied for wide spec- trum of different tasks, especially if someone is prepared to learn coding pro- grams.

  • Compendium of Material of OSS/FS
    A Compendium of Material on Open Source Software / Free Software OSS/FS Definitions, Licences, and Implications The Open Source Initiative http://www.opensource.org/ Copyright © 2004 by the Open Source Initiative Open Source Initiative (OSI) is a non-profit corporation dedicated to managing and promoting the Open Source Definition for the good of the community, specifically through the OSI Certified Open Source Software certification mark and program. You can read about successful software products that have these properties, and about our certification mark and program, which allow you to be confident that software really is "Open Source." We also make copies of approved open source licenses here. The basic idea behind open source is very simple: When programmers can read, redistribute, and modify the source code for a piece of software, the software evolves. People improve it, people adapt it, people fix bugs. And this can happen at a speed that, if one is used to the slow pace of conventional software development, seems astonishing.
