lang="EN-US">With this e-mail I am submitting a new Open
Source license on behalf of my client, the city of
Solingen in Germany. The need for the new license stems
from the fact that the versatile MIT license does not
contain a limitation of liability that is effective under
German law. Even if it is predominantly assumed in the
specialist literature that Open Source licenses are
generally subject to donation law and therefore more
favourable liability and warranty rights apply, it has not
yet been confirmed by the courts. This results in the risk
that courts may adopt a different legal interpretation in
the event of a dispute, with the result that the statutory
liability limitations of donation law no longer apply.
However, it is particularly important for public law
projects of cities, municipalities, etc. to agree a
legally secure limitation of liability that guarantees a
limitation of liability regardless of the legal
classification.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
