Re: [ossig] SCO RESPONDS TO NOVELL CLAIMS

["Kenneth Wong" <ken@apdip.net>]

So they're basically saying that instead of owning IP, Patent and 
copyrights to Unix, they now only have a breach of contract between SCO 
and IBM. No wonder their stock is tanking. Lots of fun commentary about 
this on Slashdot at:

One has to be really grateful to Novell for purposely dropping this 
bombshell on SCO during their investor conference. Between this and 
Munich officially swapping 14,000 desktops over to Linux (despite 
Ballmer's visit and steep discounts,) it's proving to be a good day for OS.
