Judge Wells' Order - SCO Doesn't Get All AIX Files, IBM Doesn't Have to Go First (Groklaw)
[Posted March 3, 2004 by corbet]
Here is Groklaw's take on the order in the SCO/IBM case.
"What it all means in practical terms is that the court didn't buy SCO's argument that it needed all of AIX and Dynix and it specifically rejected its request that IBM *first* provide AIX and Dynix, so that after that SCO could find what it needed."

Sooo... if SCOX don't hold the _copy_rights to Unix Sys-V but only some 5% sellers commision agreement, is this case not obfuscating the non-deal with Novell??
Looks like the Court and IBM walked into a trap.
The case should be shelved pending the outcome SCO vs. Novell's sale of "unix".

Please check out
this Groklaw thread wherein some people agree with you. However, there are good comments to the contrary, esp. the one which says, "I'm not sure how IBM having to deliver what they offered to deliver and no more can possibly look like a defeat." After a little reading, I agree with this person's point.
