At the 2018 Legal andLicensing Workshop (LLW), which is a yearly gathering of lawyers and technical folks organized by the Free Software FoundationEurope (FSFE), attendees got more details on a recent hearing in a German GPLenforcement case. Marcus von Welser is a lawyer who represented thedefendant, Geniatech, in a case that was brought by PatrickMcHardy. In the presentation, von Welser was joined by Armijn Hemel, who helped Geniatech in its compliance efforts.
