Open source group won't hand over SCO docs (Silicon.com)

Silicon.com covers the response from the Free Software Foundation on a subpoena from SCO. "FSF general counsel Eben Moglen said: "I'm not going to permit a fishing expedition at the Free Software Foundation from a party that has shown a great deal of hostility to the Free Software Foundation and its community. We will not produce material that is the subject of attorney-client privilege, and I don't think anybody expects us to.""

As a token of good will they could send a printout of the complete kernel mailing list archive? ;-)

Enough beautiful forests have been destroyed by the insane amount of paper this case has generated already. Let's not encourage any more of it. ;-)

True, no need to kill more trees. I suggest that the entire archive be forwarded to them as email instead.

Sigh...the FSF isn't going to be pleased about being called an "open source group".
