SCO/Linux .. old news, but more recent fun

[Cyberman]

Apparently SCO is now suing people who aren't licensing there Unix "intellectual'" property not just IBM. Here are some useful releases from the Free Software foundation reguarding this. They successfully (SCO) had one company sign there licensing fees (boggle). So they are now persuing other people (woo?).

It appears that SCO has been successful because, well they are using incorrect terminology on most things they are saying.

read these releases from the FSF for your engrandisement

Also recently SCO had a press conference (or something like it) where programmers were shown the peices of UNIX source that is in LInux. Funny thing is that this source was released long ago and can be found in 2 book and in source code released by SCO.

Gotta love it when SCO screws their own credibility; morons

they wanna invalidate the GPL now, so they can declare Linux a UNIX SystemV derivate.... they're gonna burn in hell!
