SCO owns the World?
Now SCO is not claiming (though occasionally insinuating) trade secret problems. (Even if they were, their publishing of Linux source would blow that claim completely out of the water.)
Actually, it seems they are. See their recently
Amended Complaint. Their "Sixth Cause of Action (Misappropriation of Trade Secrets—Utah Code Ann. §13-24-1 et seq.)" includes:
161. Plaintiff is the owner of unique know how, concepts, ideas, methodologies, standards, specifications, programming, techniques, UNIX Software Code, object code, architecture, design and schematics that allow UNIX to operate with unmatched extensibility, scalability, reliability and security (hereinafter defined as “SCO’s Trade Secrets”). SCO’s Trade Secrets provide SCO with an advantage over its competitors.
They also allude to copyrights in numerous locations throughout the complaint.
