The story today that Marc Christensen just sent a link to at
SCO files for bankruptcy
http://www.news.com/8301-13580_3-9778778-39.html
had two precursors earlier this week that painted a rosier picture:
* Q&A: McBride says SCO isn't dead yet, despite legal loss
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/2061332/419952/78064/2/
* SCO, Novell back in court Monday in Unix fight
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/2085190/419952/78983/2/
Other SCO-related stories from the last few weeks may be of historical
interest:
* Judge Rules Novell Owns Unix
A federal court ruling knocks the legs out from under SCO's
challenge to IBM, Linux.
http://ct.enews.eweek.com/rd/cts?d=186-7766-1-94-217834-776901-0-0-0-1
* SCO says it's down but not out in Linux case
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1937446/419952/74901/2/
* Monday's IT Blogwatch: in which the SCO Group loses its case
against Novell and probably IBM too. Not to mention happy,
shiny, nuclear power...
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1937446/419952/74909/2/
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1932927/419952/74705/2/
* "May we live in interesting times. . ." On Friday last, the
judge in the extraordinarily long court case brought by SCO
(The SCO Group Inc., formerly the Santa Cruz Operation)
against Novell gave his judgement. SCO lost. The basics of the
case, which is both complex and long-winded as only the
American legal system can, was that. . .
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1944896/419952/74932/2/
* Novell doesn't want to be the next SCO
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1961858/419952/75251/2/
* Ruling against SCO provides 'small relief' for Linux users
http://cwflyris.computerworld.com/t/1966557/419952/75474/2/
* Groklaw's thorough documenting of the SCO legal saga with
Linux made it easier for IT to support the operating system,
says Frank Hayes.
