I saw this about Microsoft Azure today and was intrigued:
For those of you consulting with clients on the benefits and risks of public cloud deployments it appears to be a new development in the industry which should certainly be considered.
Of course this feature is brand new and as far as I am aware untested, but I certainly commend Microsoft for addressing the problem directly.
I really like the "Springing License" and "Patent Pick" components and am especially impressed that the new policy expressly includes open source code in its indemnity pledge for Azure services.
See the details in the FAQ and receive a copy of the full terms and conditions from IPAdvant@microsoft.com
I wonder if and when Google and Amazon will respond?
