I\'m Not an IT Lawyer: Why Does Open Source Matter to Me?Jennifer O'Neill
The line between intellectual property lawyers and general practitioners was once a clear one. IP lawyers filed patent applications, registered trademarks, and counseled their clients on whether reprinting an article was “fair use” of a copyrighted work. Generalists negotiated contracts, prosecuted and defended litigation, and drafted corporate filings.
In the current economy, a generalist may not be able to consult an IP specialist. And the pervasive quality of technology means that IP issues are present in many transactions, particularly with respect to the use and licensing of software.
You don’t have to be a programmer to help your client address these concerns. But inevitably, you will need to understand the concept of open source.

Writing a Draft of the Personal Document
Revising your writing provides you the chance to ensure your ideas are clear and effective prior to submitting the final draft. At times it can be challenging to see problematic areas in your own writing; this is where peer feedback can be very beneficial.
Prepare: Complete the assigned Unit 4 Reading and Learning Activities. Preview the Unit 4 Assignment details.
Review the topic ideas and prewriting you posted to the Unit 3 Discussion Board as well as the feedback you received from your classmates. Make any necessary adjustments to your topic, audience, and main point. That will prepare you to write a rough draft of your blog post.
Post: Post Your Draft
Using your prewriting ideas and feedback that helped you to choose one topic, audience, and purpose, write a 2–3-paragraph rough draft of your Unit 4 Assignment and post it to the Discussion Board. This is going to be a rough draft, so do not worry if it needs editing and revision. All drafts need work.
Include a bit of self-reflection as well so the class knows how to best help you:
· What aspects of your draft do you think could use development?
· What aspects of your draft do you think are strong?
· Which areas of your draft are you still working on?
· Include an open-ended question about any issue your initial post raises which your classmates can help you with.
Respond: Respond to classmates’ postings
Make comments and ask questions about two classmates’ drafts. Be sure to address the following points:
· What was the purpose of the document?
· Who is the intended audience?
· If you were the audience, would you be helped by the writer’s points and use of personal experience? How so?
· Are there places where more needs to be said?
· Using your knowledge of the revision process, what suggestions could you make for revising this draft?
Review a sample student Discussion Board post.
Discussion requirements
Initial post should:
· demonstrate effectively developed paragraphs
· be on topic
· be original
· contribute to the quality of the discussion
· make frequent and informed references to the unit concepts
ASSIGNMENT
Expressing Yourself Informally
For the Unit 4 Assignment, you will write a 1–1.5-page, double spaced, informal and personal blog post on an issue that is in some way relevant to your field of study and that you have personal experience with.
According to The Social Psychology Network, a blog, “short for "web log," is an online journal or record of sequential postings with news, commentary, or other material” (2017). Like an essay, a blog post establishes and develops a clear point about a topic or issue. Depending on the topic, audience, and purpose, a blog can be formal or informal. A blog written by an individual, for example, tends to be about his or her experience with the topic and is written in first person.
Imagine for this Assignment that you have created your own blog site and that you are writing a post for your blog .
