Makes me wonder...

Parent article: Heise reports from SCO Forum

1) Was this they only information they disclosed? If not, are there more pictures?
2) Is this the same code which "experts" reviewed under NDA before stating it was likely that code had been directly copied?
3) Do they have any evidence to show that the code was not copied into Unix and that the version in Linux was taken from Unix and not BSD?
4) What about the release of older versions of Unix under the BSD license? Is this file old enough to be covered by that?
5) What about the BSD settlement? Is there a chance we will get to learn more details about the terms?

If this is the damaging evidence they keep talking about they should be worried about their case.

Makes me wonder...

But their business is really pump&dump, and protect the master as in the last M$ vs DOJ settlement, of wich Boies was the specialist...
As hard as it must sound to many, law in the hands of the powerfull is wholly a tool that can be a weapon, and not the letter of justice...

When all the dust settles, all the harm and FUD that there is to be done, would already be done, all the dumps that there is to be done, would already be done..., and with a major DRM/paladium lock up around the corner, guess who gets to win ?

SCO is right now just the prospect of a ghost,... they give every indications of knowing it, and are just playing a show as a matter of diversion for clearing the bosses... and they are PRETTY DAMN GOOD AT IT.
