I have been practicing law in Silicon Valley for over 25 years and am now a senior partner at DLA Piper which has 3400 lawyers in 23 countries and 63 cities. My practice is a mix of corporate securities and intellectual property. I am the General Counsel, pro bono, of the Open Source Initiative and I ran the "Users" committee reviewing the GPLv3 draft. I work with Sun, Palm, Sony and eBay on open source matters as well as with startups such as SugarCRM, Zimbra and Socialtext.
