SCO Stumbles in IBM Suit
The SCO Group (now based in Utah, not Santa Cruz) just had the bulk of its lawsuit
against IBM
tossed
out
. SCO claims that IBM took SCO's proprietary Linux code and simply gave
it to the open source community.
Here's where it gets weird: SCO wants IBM to show what code it supposedly stole
(I guess that's "innocent until you prove yourself guilty"). Also,
there's a question as to whether SCO gained any copyrights when it bought the
rights to Unix from Novell.
