I-Xiaomi ijoyina inyathelo lokukhusela i-Linux kumabango elungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza

U-Xiaomi, omnye wabakhiqizi abakhulu bee-smartphones, izixhobo ezihlakaniphile kunye neeplatifomu ze-IoT, ujoyine i-Open Invention Network (OIN), umbutho ozinikele ekukhuseleni i-ecosystem ye-Linux kumabango e-patent. Ngokujoyina i-OIN, inkampani ibonise ukuzibophelela kwayo ekuveliseni intsebenziswano kunye nolawulo lwelungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza. Kuyaphawulwa ukuba iLinux kunye nobuchwepheshe obuvulekileyo yinxalenye ephambili yeemveliso ze-Xiaomi kwaye inkampani izimisele ukuqhubeka nophuhliso kunye nokuhlanganiswa kwesoftware yomthombo ovulekileyo kwiimveliso zayo, kunye nokuthatha inxaxheba kuphuhliso lweLinux kunye neeprojekthi ezahlukeneyo zomthombo ovulekileyo.

Amalungu e-OIN ayavuma ukuba angawafaki amabango elungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza kwaye aya kuvumela ngokukhululekileyo ukusetyenziswa kweetekhnoloji ezinelungelo elilodwa lomenzi kwiiprojekthi ezinxulumene ne-Linux ecosystem. Amalungu e-OIN aquka ngaphezu kwe-3500 yeenkampani, uluntu kunye nemibutho etyikitye isivumelwano selayisensi yokwabelana ngelungelo elilodwa lomenzi wechiza. Phakathi kwabathathi-nxaxheba abaphambili be-OIN, ukuqinisekisa ukuqulunqwa kwe-patent pool ekhusela i-Linux, ziinkampani ezifana neGoogle, IBM, NEC, Toyota, Renault, SUSE, Philips, Red Hat, Alibaba, HP, AT & T, Juniper, Facebook, Cisco, ICasio, iHuawei, iFujitsu, iSony kunye neMicrosoft.

Iinkampani ezityikitya isivumelwano zifumana ukufikelela kumalungelo awodwa abenzi bamachiza aphethwe yi-OIN ngokutshintshiselana nesibophelelo sokungalandeli amabango asemthethweni okusetyenziswa kobuchwepheshe obusetyenziswa kwi-ecosystem ye-Linux. Ukuquka njengenxalenye yokujoyina i-OIN, iMicrosoft itshintshele kubathathi-nxaxheba be-OIN ilungelo lokusebenzisa ngaphezulu kwamawaka angama-60 amalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza, ethembisa ukungawasebenzisi ngokuchasene neLinux kunye nesoftware evulelekileyo.

Isivumelwano phakathi kwabathathi-nxaxheba be-OIN sisebenza kuphela kumacandelo osasazo awela phantsi kwenkcazo yenkqubo ye-Linux ("i-Linux System"). Uluhlu okwangoku lubandakanya iiphakheji ze-3393, kuquka i-Linux kernel, iqonga le-Android, i-KVM, i-Git, nginx, i-Apache Hadoop, i-CMake, i-PHP, i-Python, i-Ruby, i-Go, i-Lua, i-LLVM, i-OpenJDK, i-WebKit, i-KDE, i-GNOME, i-QEMU, i-Firefox, LibreOffice, Qt, systemd, X.Org, Wayland, PostgreSQL, MySQL, njl. Ukongeza kwiimbophelelo zokungaxhatshazwa, ukwenzela ukhuseleko olongezelelweyo, i-OIN yenze i-patent pool, equka i-patent ezinxulumene ne-Linux ezithengiweyo okanye ezinikezelwe ngabathathi-nxaxheba.

I-OIN patent pool ibandakanya ngaphezulu kwe 1300 yamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza. I-OIN ikwaphethe iqela lamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza aqulathe ukukhankanywa kokuqala kobuchwepheshe bokudala umxholo oguqukayo wewebhu, owawufanekisela ukuvela kweenkqubo ezifana ne-ASP esuka kuMicrosoft, JSP esuka kwi-Sun/Oracle kunye ne-PHP. Elinye igalelo elibalulekileyo yayikukufunyanwa ngo-2009 kwamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza angama-22 awayethengiswe ngaphambili kwi-AST consortium njengamalungelo awodwa omenzi wechiza agubungela iimveliso “zemithombo evulekileyo”. Bonke abathathi-nxaxheba be-OIN banethuba lokusebenzisa ezi patent simahla. Ukuba semthethweni kwesivumelwano se-OIN kwaqinisekiswa sisigqibo seSebe lezoBulungisa lase-US, esifuna ukuba umdla we-OIN uthatyathelwe ingqalelo ngokwemigaqo yentengiselwano yokuthengiswa kwamalungelo awodwa abenzi beNovell.
