...and if SCO is right...?...and if SCO is right...?Posted May 19, 2003 18:41 UTC (Mon) by southey (subscriber, #9466)Parent article: ...and if SCO is right...?
It is very clear that SCO is using this law suit a means to attack Linux. SCO has to show that the alleged code is SCO Unix (not BSD Unix) and came via IBM and not any other source including SCO. Since only SCO and license holder's can see the code I very much doubt any court will convict a third party that has no knowledge of any wrong doing or any way to verify it. So wining the suit means IBM has to pay up and Linux will only be affected if it included in the settlement such as removing that code. Although that would provide a counter law suit because of the GPL. Will the courts allow SCO to put the cat back in the bag after so long?
