SCO readies new Linux licensing program (InfoWorld)SCO readies new Linux licensing program (InfoWorld)Posted Jul 20, 2003 23:32 UTC (Sun) by edvac (guest, #13074)Parent article: SCO readies new Linux licensing program (InfoWorld) Is this article anything more that flamebait? Look at the number of GNU/Linux users in the world outside of the United States, and ask youself if they are going to even give a hoot what sco thinks or does. Do these people at sco really think the rest of the world is just going to bow down to them and pay them money because they are cool or something like that? If you happen to have a copy; look at "Caldera Lite, Release 1.0, 24 April 1996" (distributed by caldera), it uses the GPL licensed kernel. Sorry sco, you loose.

Infact I downloaded a kernel, complete with COPYING-file containing the GPL and sourcecode for the entire thing from ftp.caldera.com on the 15th of may 2003, long after SCO started this present nonsense.

SO what you are saying is that SCO is still distributing what they claim to have closed license of, under terms and conditions of the GNU / GPL? What a surprise! </SARCASM>
