A New York Times article "Ruling Is a Victory for Supporters of Free Software" (August 14, 2008, NY Times Business section, p. C7) reports a decision upholding an open source license that had lost in the lower court. A pdf of the decision is available at the Findlaw website, at URL

This is not a broadly worded decision but the outcome points in the right direction, toward enforceability of an open source license.
