OSI vs SCO

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the battle-has-yet-to-begin dept.

the jackol writes "As expected, the OSI's just given the SCO vs IBM case a bite with this position paper. "SCO has never owned the UNIX trademark. IBM neither requested nor required SCO's permission to call their AIX offering a Unix. That decision lies not with the accidental owner of the historical Bell Labs source code, but with the Open Group.""

    I know you're being sarcastic, and I think your parent is an ignorant fool too, but as it happens, IBM doesn't bundle AIX with its mainframes either.
