Nine Out Of Ten Linux Developers Refute Sco’s Linux Lawsuit (Evans Data Corp.)
Evans Data Corporation has released
the results of a survey of Linux users concerning the SCO lawsuit.
"More than 90% of Linux developers don’t believe the SCO/Linux lawsuit has any merit, according to the Spring 2004 Linux Development Survey from Evans Data Corporation. Three percent "absolutely" believe the lawsuit has merit, a further 5% think it "probably" has merit but more than half answered "absolutely not"." The survey also looks into the expanding
use of the Eclipse development platform and Java on Linux.

Basically, in any questionaire, you'll get a sprinkling of people who select the most outrageous answers possible, just because.Thus, 3% is about the lowest you'll ever get for any unlikely alternative. Indeed, if you made a questionaire about how the solar-system is structured, and made one of the options "turtles all the way down", you'd probably get something similar for that.
