Hello. Very interesting article from http://arstechnica.com here: http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080501-deluded-sco-ceo-on-witness-st… A quote from that article: "Greg Jones, VP of Technology at Novell, was called as a witness. Jones was asked if SCO ever told Novell that it would sue Linux users. He said, "No, never that specific." When asked if SCO notified Novell under the Asset Purchase Agreement Amendment 2 that it would enter into a license with Microsoft, he said, "No." Jones testified that SVRX code is in Solaris and that he had discovered several cases of this. At that point, Novell entered into evidence at least 21 examples of OpenSolaris code that had been taken from the SVRX code base (one such example can be found on the OpenSolaris web site) and re-licensed under Sun's open-source CDDL license. He further testified that the agreement between SCO and Sun was "extraordinary" in allowing a move from a proprietary license to an open-source license, and if Novell had been asked, it would have prevented SCO from entering into that agreement. He said the same thing regarding the Microsoft agreement with SCO, as well as the agreement between SCO and Computer Associates." And then this pearl: "SCO argues that it was not authorized to execute license agreements and that interested third parties such as Sun and Microsoft should get their money back, but it says that Novell is not entitled to hold the money in the interim. If you purchased a license from SCO that was unauthorized, the argument is that you'll need sue them to get it back. Since SCO is currently in bankruptcy proceedings, that could be difficult." ------ Ain't it funny? -- Pepe pepe(a)naleco.com
