Global Access to Health, at

Innovation for Open Society, at

the Science Commons initiative by Lawrence Lessig et
al, at http://science.creativecommons.org/
"BIOS will soon launch an open-source platform that
promises to free up rights to patented DNA sequences
and the methods needed to manipulate biological
material. Users must only follow BIOS' "rules of
engagement," which are similar to those used by the
open-source software community.?

A number of large companies are started to put their
patents in a 'patent commons', as recently advocated

?The IBM (IBM) move is meant to encourage other patent
holders to donate their own intellectual property in
order to form what the company refers to as a "patent
commons," a modern twist on shared public lands set
aside under traditional laws.?
