I've kept copies of the license and modified the sources I'm working on to include the Caldera license, BSD style. The only potential problem is that it may be a lightning rod and I could loose permission to complete the project. Just thought I'd pass along the latest SCO craziness.

I dont know... having concepts remotely in common with 7th edition? Maybe SCO should do over the Xinu guys too -- just for a laugh. Oh, and maybe MWC too, just because McBride has obviously had too much Jolt Cola, or Southern Comfort, or maybe both... mixed in with a lot of prozac. But, in answer to their question about "who would you say Unix belongs to"... I'd have said The Open Group... but it seems that owning the source code is more important. Hmm, radical idea here SCO... but, instead of trying to sue everyone and his goat, why not make UnixWare better than the festering lump it is now... then you could compete with IBM and Sun etc - oh, and maybe even fire the troll who thinks that sed is an interactive editor and wrote so in the UnixWare manual. P.S. If SCO are of the opinion that IBM have made AIX available under open source... where can I get the kernel source? ;) -- Best regards, Paul mailto:asmodai at ao.mine.nu ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 7+ messages in thread
