The next chapter in the Merkey saga
Scholars around the US will surely be wondering: how could this computer-illiterate deluded guy become Chief Scientist at a huge company? They will then remember the decline of fortunes at Novell, their brains will add 1+1, and they will be enlightened.
Now let's take this Merkey-SCO relationship. Up until this point we had to look at a certain windy path between O'Gara (mentioned in the complaint), McBride, SCO, this Merkey and Microsoft; specifically against the GPL, Groklaw and PJ. But with our new enlightenment we can take a look at the path taken by Caldera and watch their downwards spiral.
As an alternative we might assume that there is a different agent of "bad luck" (others would call it "plain sheer incompetence") at work at SCO; but assuming that there are two similar guys in the area is too much, right?
