I read about this article over on rootprompt.org the other day that
talks about SCO backing off the claims of System V code in Linux and
that... well here is an excerp
"SCO (SCOX) says it now owns the Unix System V copyright registrations.
However SCO also now agrees that it does not own the IBM-developed AIX
code copyrights. SCO-Caldera also admits that it does not own the
copyrights for the JFS, RCU, and NUMA software code that IBM contributed
to the Linux kernel -- or other IBM-developed AIX code that IBM
contributed to the Linux kernel."
This article was posted on MozillaQuest.com which I generally take their
articles with a grain of salt. I noticed the article is now posted on
Slashdot also. (althought it claims it's from The Register) Can anyone
verify these claims? If they are "real" then SCO is backing off
attacking the Linux community and just going after IBM now?
Anyway, like I said I take MozillaQuest.com articles with a grain of
salt, and was just trying to verify this.
