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 spend $1500 on a unlimited user UNIX
    called Interactive UNIX. It was marketed
    by Sun at the time. It was a true SVR3.2
    running on Intel. This was in 1994.
