The OSADL Quick Linux Compliance Check

OK, you do not convey products that contain the Linux kernel

You very probably are save with respect to Linux copyright infringement. However, it is well conceivable that your product contains Open Source software other than the Linux kernel. Thus, our advice still is to seek legal support. The OSADL Team will be glad to provide related information. You may contact them by writing an email to officeªosadl.org or by completing this contact form.

Please come back anyway when you plan to use the Linux kernel in one of the products that you convey. The link to the entry page of this short survey is: https://www.osadl.org/?id=2494. If you would like to know already now which questions will be asked and which answers we expect you to give, have a look here.
