The case about SCO, LINUX and Novel is closed for one month, but people are not interested in it any more, what a joke!

One thing we should remember though is that MS is the only company paid LINUX license fee to SCO!

Well who cares about a company that has threatend the linux community for ages and yet never shown its cards when the game really mattered.

I am sure Sun paid licensing fees to SCO as well (and then went on to opensource Solaris).

It's one of those things the lumbering elephant that is the F/OSS movement will probably (hopefully) never forget.

To forget the past is to be condemned to repeat it. (That's my own corollary to the "fail to study history" expression.)
