Open Source Policy Template – Now in Japanese

The OpenChain Open Source Policy Template helps apply the key requirements for a quality open source compliance program. It provides sample policy text that helps organisations select, classify, incorporate and publish open source code with a focus on legal compliance of open source.

This template has been available in English for several years thanks to the hard work of Andrew Katz, the teams at Moorcrofts and Orcro, and the broader OpenChain community. Now, thanks to Masahiko Hayashi and the team at NEC, this policy template is available in Japanese.

This is an excellent resource to help you conform to OpenChain ISO/IEC 5230:2020 or to simply improve your internal process management for open source.
