Dead cow meat aside, no one seems to have had the presence of mind to have done any diff of the "show and tell" code (which now appears to be rather archaic by all rumor) with the Minix source. How wide was the nozzle on the code vacuum at AT&T/USL anyway? Certainly the details of the BSDi situation will finally out with all of this crap. It would not be any surprise to anyone that the closed source boys were/are playing bucaneer with everything and everyone to line their pockets.

As far as Scaldera is concerened, they have already defrauded the community by claiming that they would open the UnixWare code after their "unification" with Linux. This whole mess stinks to high heaven and will cause immense harm to all of the IT "industry," Hopefully the epicenter of the damage can be confined far to the northwest of Utah. I think it will ultimately turn out that way.
