Thanks for pointing this out. This doesn't so much present
a threat to IBM or to free software, as to the entire business
model of licensing technology. SCO/Caldera can't be expected
to survive this and it will be a significant precedent for
other companies who find themselves with their 'IP' threatened
by innovation.

Not mentioning any names :-)
