I really wonder if perhaps all the User Groups could file a Class Action Law
Suite
against SCO. For supplying Linux Users Groups with copies of Caldera Linux
that
also has this same supposed code? Then in an attempt to claim that everyone
using Linux
owes them money for the alleged code.
Wouldn't this be considered entrapment? Not to mention the fact that they
also used the United Linux Project
as a means of getting S.u.S.E., Conectiva, and Turbo Linux customer base
after the fact that they took code
from these Linux Companies then signed under agreement to SHARE CODE!
This would then mean SCO supplied the code and then in a attempt to save
falling company would try to Sabotage the whole
United Linux Project. Which then would make you wonder a little more deeply
about the fact that Microsoft has now also decided to
use Red Hat Linux for it's security meaning that they are using this Alleged
code and where is the press about them using this and having
to pay SCO? Does the fact of them signing a deal a little bit ago make them
immune to this? Why didn't Microsoft go with SCO's Caldera distro
could it be that Microsoft knows it is B$ as well and figured that by using
Red Hat it does not have to worry about this?
I think that is a story in it's self that it did not use a suppose Business
Partners Product? Then went with one of it's Competitors.
What does that show? A. They don't trust SCO/Caldera's Distro, B.They figure
since they also hold 10% stock in Redhat that they get a break on cost
C.They know that for a fact that Red Hat does not have any of the alleged
code , D. Microsoft is trying to partner with Linux companies to like they
did with Corel, and with SCO/Caldera to only have them either agree to
Distribute their .net code or to use them to blemish the Linux Community
scaring people off.
This again goes back to the Xenix days between Microsoft and SCO. I still
can not believe that the courts are allowing a company like SCO to sue
without yet providing one line of code. Perhaps Microsoft has also gotten
SCO lined up with the same Lawyers and Judges?
