This remains to be seen, as Novell says it never transferred the copyrights
to SCO. Novell was the previous owner to UNIX rights.

fellow AIXers,
as everyone already knows, SCO in a surprising turnover threatens IBM
with lawswits for 'infringing contract restrictions' over SCO
proprietary Unix technologies which IBM allegedly 'delivered' into the
Linux kernel. since these technologies probably shipped with AIX 5L --
the L stands for 'Linux integration' AFAIK -- I would like to ask you
what you think about SCO's arguments.
SCO says that 'permission' granted to IBM for use of that technologies
expires friday, June 13th. do we need to care about SCO's threats?
TIA,
marlon - aix & linux geek
