Pedigree chart wishful thinkingPedigree chart wishful thinkingPosted Jan 29, 2003 21:00 UTC (Wed) by emkey (guest, #144)In reply to: Pedigree chart wishful thinking by nas Parent article: SCOsource and Linux Thats certainly my recollection. The only reason its distribution was restricted was because of the agreement Tanenbaum had signed with... Prentice Hall I believe who distributed the book. Even then you could give copies to other under some circumstances. If he'd release Minix to the public domain back then we likely wouldn't ever have heard of Linus.
