SCO Awarded UNIX Copyright Regs, McBride Interview

Posted by Hemos on from the it-drags-on-and-on-and-on dept.

Prizm writes "It seems that SCO is continuing to build up its case for world domination, as today it was awarded U.S. copyright registrations for UNIX System V source code by the U.S. Copyright Office. Shares are up 20%, Novell is nowhere to be found, and SCO is releasing binary, run-only Linux licensing. You can read all about it over in their press release." C|Net is also running an interview with McBride.

    Another arrogant slashdotter who thinks that social rules don't apply to him as long as he's got access to the source code and a speedy Internet connection.
