This news item describes some recent activity in JMRI's legal struggle to defend the free & open-source nature of it's software, and provides pointers to more information. This is an important case, because we're defending against an attack on some of the basic ways (copyrights and published code) that open-source software communities protect their work from misuse.
JMRI (Java Model Railroad Interface) is a successful project to create software for model railroads. It is hosted on SourceForge.net and has large user and developer communities.
