SCO copied Linux code?SCO copied Linux code?Posted Aug 20, 2003 4:15 UTC (Wed) by billyfoss (guest, #14215)In reply to: Thanks, folks by BrucePerens Parent article: SCO's proof bogus, Linux advocate says (InfoWorld) There seems to be one more similarity to the AT&T vs. BSD case. According to the history of Unix chart on SCO's web site(http://www.sco.com/scosource/unixtree/unixhistory01.html) SCO copied FROM Linux. If you look at the UnixWare Pedigree around Aug 21, 2000, two arrows clearly point from Linux to UnixWare. One is from Linux 2.2.16, and the other is from Linux 2.4.0 Test 1. I would guess this is related to the Linux Kernel Personality feature added to UnixWare 7. (http://www.sco.com/products/openunix/lkp/faq.html) "LKP incorporates both the kernel interfaces and a Linux application environment directly into the Open UNIX 8 system." The answers to the LKP FAQs raise many questions that I don't think SCO wants to answer. Thanks, Disclaimer -
