Notes from the SCO conference callNotes from the SCO conference callPosted Jun 6, 2003 18:00 UTC (Fri) by proski (subscriber, #104)In reply to: Notes from the SCO conference call by rcrongeyer Parent article: Notes from the SCO conference call If IBM violated the contract, it doesn't matter whether the code is open now. Also, I'm almost sure that the code in question is not contained in the kernels distributed by SCO. Linux 2.4.13 was released on October 21, 2001. There has been a lot of development since then, including development done by IBM. Although the development is mostly done on the 2.5.x kernels, large pieces of code have been merged back to the 2.4.x series and may be used by the recent releases of Red Hat and other distributions.

Notes from the SCO conference call Posted Jun 6, 2003 22:20 UTC (Fri) by simlo (subscriber, #10866) [Link] You can of date still find kernel-source-2.4.19.SuSE-106.nosrc.rpm 10496 KB 09-05-2003 13:32:00 on ftp.sco.com - notice no source. Besides of that I can only find some kernel-addons src.rpm of 1Mb. to 2.4.13. But distributing form does count for accepting GPL, doesn't it? That said they can still hit IBM for putting the code in there, but the rest of us are covered by the GPL.
