Intel to Universities: No Patents, Please, Just Open Source

http://j.mp/oTuOBT (Innovation Excellence)

"... the company [Intel] has made it a condition that in order to receive the millions, your university must open source any resulting software and inventions that come out of this research funding. Yes, open source. Your university cannot stake claim to any patents. There will be no intellectual property clauses, no negotiations, no nonsense."
