Notes from the SCO conference call
_If_ there is code that has been copied from system 5 UNIX that includes the comments from the original and SCO will not tell the community where it is, should it not be easy for us, or a big company with Linux interests (eg IBM), to find it?
My understanding is that a large amount of the system 5 code is out in the wild, or that at least IBM, Novell and others have a copy of it, so would not a simple shell script that parses the system 5 code, extracts all the comments, and then searches for them in the Linux kernel code be easy to implement?
Why has this not been done? Am I missing something?
