What, me worry?

What, me worry?

Parent article: What SCO Wants, SCO Gets (Forbes)

The "crunchie" reference is probably to those who in my college days were called "granolas," liberal-minded folk whose non-conformity extended so far as to eat food that was good for them.

This column is awfully similar to the one Dvorak wrote a week or so ago. "Wake up!!" they write, but neglect to tell us what we should be doing instead. Why should we worry, what good would that do? HP has looked at the code and says it's clean. IBM says it's clean. Red Hat and SuSE say it's clean. The kernel coders say it's clean. The FSF vouches for the libraries and GNU tool chain. The only thing that can hurt us is if the court buys the idea that SCO owns not just UNIX, but everything even remotely related to it. A Utah court maybe, but not the Court of Appeals.
