"I am on the editorial panel and am also happy to take credit for initially floating the idea of having a journal. I am also happy to praise the enormous effort that has gone into putting the law review together by the other members of the editorial committee and to the sponsors for supporting it.

"There is, I think, a great need for a journal like this dedicated to free and open source software related legal issues. At the moment, these issues remain hidden among other more generalist law journals – and are likely to be country specific. Moroever, such articles are unlikely to be appropriately licensed."
