The SCO Group might have stood a chance had it not sold and distributed the GPL'ed binaries and source code to the Linux Kernel. Once The SCO did distribute, they forfeited the right to impose any further restriction of the source use under the GPL than what is granted by the GPL license.

halt their "we-are-the-safe-linux" fantasies, not so ?
