This Project Grant from the National Science Foundation's Division of Social and Economic Science, under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences federal grant program (CFDA 47.075), provides $100,000 to the College of William & Mary for a project titled "Enabling Comprehensive and Interactive Open Source Software License Compliance." The project aims to improve software accountability with respect to intellectual property law and open source licensing by developing an interactive solution to assist software engineers and legal professionals in understanding and addressing licensing issues. Specifically, the College of William & Mary will conduct user studies; create taxonomies of licensing needs, issues, and misconceptions; build a database of open source licenses; and elicit design requirements to develop an interactive tool over three years. This tool will engage users to provide guidance on license compliance in a way that makes future engagement with legal counsel more efficient and effective. It will also disseminate educational materials on licensing. The project completion date is September 30, 2025.
