"The
subpoenas request that OSDL and Torvalds produce documents for use in that
dispute. "


hmmm,... the all history with source code of all patches submited to Linus, in actual physical paper support ?

Couldn't they accept a digital record ?... no ?

Some supplier of paper is going to be very happy!
(Althought it could be a very good ideia,..., just imagine SCO trying to steal some actual code from a paper record!!)

"just imagine SCO trying to steal some actual code from a paper record"

A stupid thing that i just writen, Linux is open-source and so SCO could copy at will... if they havent done that by now!... or anybody else!...

The all matter is already too confusing, to say the least, even more trying to think in a SCO logic... sorry.

Just like the Russian diplomacy: tell your opponent such a big and obvious lie, which is such a big and obvious nonsance, taht your opponent is totally shocked and doesn't have any words left to answer it.

Where do I know? Well, I live in Estonia and The Russian Federation(former and future Soviet Union) is our big eastern nabour. By the way, the same criminals, that led the Russia during the Soviet times, are pretty much still in the same leading positions, the changes are rather formal and The Russian Federation even swiched back to the hymn of the former Soviet Union.
So, if you hear the hymn of the Russian Federation, it will be the exactly the same, that was used during the cold war. Graduations!

You mean accusing the stolen opponent victims of stealing... "guess" SCO is going to set the records odd to anyone!

This is a site about Linux, can you please restrain from off-topic hate speech?

P.S. While I agree that Russian state is being run by criminals, I believe it is unfair to repititively attack Russians while most other states and many large companies are run by criminals, as well. Not to mention that to punish Russian nationals for crimes commited by a Russian state is a crime of its own.

P.P.S. The quote that you attribute to Russian diplomacy actually belongs to Gebbels. Know your sources.
