[gentoo-user] Doubts about how to create a free software project

[Raphael Melo de Oliveira Bastos Sales]

Hi everyone,

   I work with biotech and for about an 1 year I've been working on a
web interface for genome/proteome data analysis. And I'd like to make
it free software. But I still have doubts about legal problems I might
face and about intellectual property.
    Basically, I don't want to restrict people on using and
contributing with source or whatever, but don't want anyone taking
credit for my work or pateting it and sending me a cease-and-desist
letter.
   If anyone has any insight, references or links on this subject,
please let me know.

Thanks for the attention,

Raphael
