OSS Watch - open source software advisory service: "OSS Watch promotes awareness and understanding of the legal, social, technical and economic issues that arise when educational institutions engage with free and open source software." There is so much valuable information to be found on this website. Unfortunately it is mainly geared to the UK public (as could be expected, being JISC funded) and all stuff is in the English language. If you want to know more details regarding different open source licenses and licensing models, you can start reading this excellent FAQ, written by Andrew Charlesworth and Anna Home from the Centre for IT and Law, University of Bristol.
In the Dutch language I have found the following source of valuable information on the OSOSS website: "De licentiewijzer is bedoeld om u wegwijs te maken in open source software licentiemodellen."
