A Systematic Method to Establish a Solid Governance Framework for Preventing and Resolving OSS Compliance Issues - Yunjae Jung, OpenWisdom
This proposal presents a practical method for establishing a solid defense system to prevent OSS license risks and resolve open source software related compliance issues not only for an enterprise but also for a group of affiliates. Since the method is based on the flow of open source inside and outside of the enterprise, it also contributes to constructing a framework for software supply chain management in terms of OSS license compliance. Its external benefit is to make a trustworthy infrastructure of OSS ecosystem. In addition, its internal benefit is to give a legally safe platform for maximum usage of OSS.

Panel Discussion: Open Source License Compliance - Better Together - Thomas Steenbergen, HERE Technologies; Yoshitake Kobayashi, Toshiba Corporation; Kate Stewart, Linux Foundation & Michael C. Jaeger, Siemens AG
Collaboration is not only a good means to develop software together. Also managing Open Source software benefits a lot from collaboration between companies.

The Open Source Tooling Group has been formed by OSS project contributors and experts in OSS license compliance: the goal is to jointly support open source projects and to work on integration cases between tools. This collaboration enables turn-key license compliance solutions, because individual OSS projects do not cover all areas of OSS license compliance in companies.

The proposed panel presents experts both from developing OSS-based solutions and managing OSS license compliance programs.

The panel focuses on discussion about the following three questions: What is being worked on currently for integrating the existing open source license compliance software? Where are more efforts needed? Where is the trend in future going to?

OIN has over 3K+ licensees as a part of patent non aggression community now, because Open Source is "must use" technology for companies and thus companies must address patent risk in Open Source. On the other hand, companies can feel caught in between open source culture and traditional patent culture especially in the case of companies that own large number of patents.
In this panel, we invite Licensee and Member companies of OIN to share their reason why they joined OIN, how they decided this and what kind of discussion happened internally. In addition, current state of affairs and what they are expecting in the future for OIN will be discussed.

Open Source Economics for Licence and Compliance Experts - James Bottomley, IBM
Thanks to various populist articles by Venture Capitalists, there is a significant expectation of an open source economic model which is being thwarted by various leaders and licence experts. The object of this session is to arm lawyers, compliance experts and leaders with the facts so they can better respond when put on the spot by various interests (and also when clients and others picking up on the hype ask similar questions). The truth, of course, is that Open Source Licences have no associated Economic models. However, there are various models of how open source communities operate which have economic implications an can be discussed with clients. This session will explain the basics of economics as it relates to open source, how best to debunk the VC claims, and how to discuss economic models in open source rationally with clients

Supply Chain Compliance of the Future, Scalable, Trusted and Automated - Oskar Swirtun, FOSSID AB
As software becomes more and more ubiquitous and globalization contributes to complex and geographically distributed supply chains, compliance stays more or less the same. We need to integrate modern tools and workflows into the compliance universe while making sure that we do not force the vast diaspora of actors into a one-size-fits-all. Small research projects will approach compliance differently than large enterprises but in today's world we might face situations where code from both are integrated in the same software stack. We propose a vendor-neutral approach based on open standards to create a robust scalable model that allows for flexible and deeply integrated workflows. We also present a concrete example of how such an implementation might look in a way that outsources compliance report generation without exposing any actual source code.

OSS Review Toolkit: Using FOSS Tools for FOSS Reviews in CI/CD World - Thomas Steenbergen, HERE Technologies
In an ideal world, a FOSS review is highly automated and done often and early so that any FOSS issues - whether technical, licenses or security - can be caught and resolved as they appear. However, despite many proprietary tools existing, the OSS community has been without review tooling that is compatible with modern SW development practices like using package managers, continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD).

Without this review capability, FOSS projects often are released without clear metadata, resulting in reduced adoption and contribution numbers, rendering the projects less successful.

In this talk we demonstrate the latest version of OSS Review Toolkit (ORT) which enables highly automated OSS reviews within CI/CD by combining FOSS dependency and scanning tools like ScanCode with ClearlyDefined, a platform to discover, curate and share FOSS component metadata.

Managing OSS Vulnerability with Software Component Catalogue, SW360 - Yosuke Yamada, Hitachi, Ltd
Hitachi develops and provides enterprise systems with a large amount of software including OSS, and the number of software used at Hitachi is increasing year by year. Additionally, software vulnerability is detected and reported quite often. Therefore, it is getting hard for Hitachi to continuously recognize vulnerabilities of all software components. SW360 is an OSS software that can manage software components in projects and can collect related vulnerability information, by using CVE security vulnerability information database. It can be used to continuously recognize and manage software vulnerabilities in each project. Currently, SW360 doesn’t have vulnerability notification function by email, so he is developing a tool for it. In this session, he will explain connection between Hitachi’s software component management database and SW360, configuration and usage of REST API of SW360.

Using SW360 in Compliance Supply Chain - Arun Azhakesan, Siemens Healthineers & Michael C. Jaeger, Siemens AG
Organisations which develop software need to keep track of their third party components.

Keeping track of third party components means two elements: a catalog of components in use. And, a list of software bill or materials, allowing to manage the component versions are used in which product or software projects.

The Open Source Project SW360 provides organisations with such systems. Based on the catalog and the software bill-of-material, different processes are supported, license compliance, product approval or ECC checks

The presentations will cover perspectives and experience from two organisations who run SW360 in productive use. It also hands-on demo of sw360. The audience can ask questions about particular features that can be also shown directly on the software.

Architecting a Security and Compliance System - Jeff McAffer & William Bartholomew, GitHub
Managing the open source used by an enterprise is a daunting task. It is trivial for developers to pull in hundreds, if not thousands, of pieces of open source in just one product. More often than not these are indirect dependencies brought in unknowingly. Each component must be detected, analyzed, reviewed for security and compliance issues, approved, attributed, cataloged, and tracked for future vulnerabilities. Automation is key, and structuring an automated system the challenge.

In this talk, we outline the full spectrum of confidence-inspiring security and compliance steps, discuss a high-level architecture for such a system, and dive into recent developments on key elements. Attendees will come away understanding the scope of security and compliance tooling and how to integrate it into their supply chain, thus enabling better decisions about acquiring or creating their own.

Collaborative Authorship Models in Open Source - Dashiell Renaud, Google
When a work is authored collaboratively, a number of legal mechanisms can be employed to allocate copyright rights to the collaborators. These mechanisms range from acknowledging only one single person as the copyright holder to treating all collaborators as co-authors that share copyright ownership equally. Because open source projects are collaborative works, and because copyright assignment has significant legal ramifications, these mechanisms are an important topic in the field of open source compliance. This talk will cover the criteria used to determine which authorship model applies to a given collaborative work, the impact these mechanisms have on the rights and permissions of contributors, and best practices for establishing a collaborative authorship model that serves the needs of your open source project.
