SCO shows Linux code to analysts (InfoWorld)SCO shows Linux code to analysts (InfoWorld)Posted Jun 12, 2003 12:55 UTC (Thu) by Wol (guest, #4433)In reply to: SCO shows Linux code to analysts (InfoWorld) by Odysseus Parent article: SCO shows Linux code to analysts (InfoWorld) That's what SCO is arguing - yes. That they own AIX because AIX is derived from the original AT&T Unix. What they conveniently miss is that IBM's licence says that IBM owns any enhancements that IBM might have made. Indeed, it seems SCO haven't actually read the IBM licence, because they make great play on the fact that "linux comes without a warranty, *unlike* *licenced* *Unix*" - except that the licence says in big capitals "NO WARRANTY". As far as I can tell, while that may be what they are claiming, it has (like so much else in their lawsuit) no basis in fact whatsoever. Cheers,
