This new third edition is revised and updated with three new chapters and numerous forms. It examines the fundamental issues that both licensors and licensees confront in the negotiation of a software license and, where appropriate, looks at relevant ancillary issues such as software development as well as maintenance and support. It primarily focuses on non-mass market agreements, since most retail or mass market off-the-shelf software is governed by non-negotiable shrinkwrap and clickwrap licenses. The book is accompanied by and cross-referenced to an annotated software license. A companion CD-ROM is also included for customization of the software license and related forms.
