It probably would take years in court to find out ;-). Novell has the
right to stop Caldera to sue. Caldera might have had the right to
relicense the code under whatever license they liked to. This was
probably the opposite of a FSF copyright transfer agreement: There you
transfer (non-exclusively) the right to sue to the FSF, but keep all
other rights. In the Novell/Caldera case, Novell transferred all rights
to Caldera, except the right to sue.
