I thought the case was over since, at IBM's request, Novell excercised it's rights over the SCO properties and changed the conditions of licensing agreements. Anyone who thinks he has a better idea of what's good for people than people do is a swine. - P.J. O'Rourke

Too bad for SCO. If they ever show anything, the Linux community could simply put the blame on IBM and remove those portions, asking users to upgrade, SCO is not going to make money out of this. Best regards, Paul. Jesus Christ is LOVE! Please tell somebody.

I can just see it... court submission
i = 1 ; // Set i to one :wtf:
and they will point to the strange formatting (double spaces) as proof...then they will try to leverage the code in an attempt to take complete authorship of Linux...I still think all of the people who contributed code to Linus should prepare invoices to SCO for the work they put in if and when SCO reveals its long term strategy. :suss: Steve

Sounds like a can of worm - but why did SCO opened it? May be Novell and SCO were playing "brothers" game (same state) but someone wanted more :(( Best regards, Paul. Jesus Christ is LOVE! Please tell somebody.

Not true at all. SCO has finally done the bright thing (from a sleazy standpoint) and is suing the businesses using Linux. Take for example a company such as Clorox. It would end up costing them more to either upgrade their systems or fight the lawsuit. How do I know this? The same thing has already played out in the OPC lawsuits where the patent holder had nothing to stand on. But they still got businesses to pay up lots of money to make the lawsuits go away. Even though I think SCO doesn't have a case, IMHO the more important thing has happened. The lie that Linux is free of IP issues has been destroyed. In this case, there wasn't a case. However, it might be different next time. Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

The lie hasn't been destroyed because SCO won't give any conclusive proof to their claims. This just fuels the idea that linux is free of IP issues instead of the alternative. Note: I believe Linux most likely has IP issues however I don't think a manager at SCO saying it has IP issues in any way proves it does Jared jparsons@jparsons.org www.prism.gatech.edu/~gte477n
