SCO Roundup
Time to clear out the bin of the taint of SCO, hopefully we haven't posted these already... The Economist has a piece titled Face Value -- Of Monkeys and Penguins. The EFF is pushing an email campaign about SCO. An anonymous reader submits this completely unverified claim that SCO needs to change the password on their mail server: sco.txt. And another reader presents a theory about SCO's stock performance.
But just in case...Brownie points for the first to post it anonymously!
I hardly think a company planning on outsource 15,000 jobs is on the right side of US IT... on the right side of IT in India, maybe!

SCO is suing on the presumption that the GPL is invalid and does not apply. Assuming that this holds, what would you be suing them for?
I'd be more worried about getting trampled by big-time lawyers, and then being used as an ugly precedent where the GPL was shown to be inapplicable to IP rights in the Linux kernel.
I like to put catnip on my balls and let my cat play with them.
