SCO's Open Letter to Open Source Community
joefish_only_1 writes "SCO CEO has posted an open letter to the open source community. There's some things Mr McBride mentions that I hadn't heard of yet, like an admission by Bruce Perens that "UNIX System V code is, in fact, in Linux, and it shouldn't be there."" A slashdot reader posted a comment recently
that breaks it down quite well.
God I hate it when management-types sign a shit-sandwich email with Regards. That's what someone says when he knows he's lying and deep-down that little guilt-twinge twitches, so he says "regards" to you to fool himself into thinking he's not being a total asshole.

Yes, I know you're trolling, but I'd just like to point out that after almost 20 years of development, HURD is still unusable. That's pretty fucking sad. Perhaps SCO really does have valid points and things were stolen to make Linux usable. Apparently a pure free software effort like HURD is unworkable so Linux must've gotten code from UNIX System V.
I knew it! Darl is an agent!

dear nazis,
/.puppets.
.asp on that. when the lights come up, there'll be no going back, & no where to hide.
forget it. it's over. the daze of phonIE payper liesense hostage taking are all but over now. you can pretend all you want, but there's no going back, & no where to hide the news your felonious greed/fear buyassed deeds.
you softwar gangsters, as well as you riaa pimps, tend to further alienate your former hostages with your threatening (see also: desperate) litigatorIE tomes.
more&more folks each day, are joining the planet/population rescue initiative (formerly unknown as the oil for babies program).
that's right. this works on several (more than 3) dimensions.
it's also free, & available immediately to you/all of US (with the possible exception of the aforementioned greed/fear based corepirate nazi/walking dead contingent).
as you can maybe already see, yOUR survival/success is not the least bit dependent on the gadgets/liesenses of the greed/fear based corepirate nazis, & their phonIE ?pr? ?firm? buyassed
consult with/trust in yOUR creator. more breathing. vote with yOUR wallet (somtimes that means not buying anything, a notion previously unmentioned buy the greed/fear/war mongers). seek others of non-aggressive/positive behaviours/intentions. stop wasting anything/being frivolous. that's the spirit.
investigate the newclear power plan. J. Public et AL has yet to become involved in open/honest 'net communications/commerce in a meaningful way. that's mostly due to the MiSinformation suppLIEd buy phonIE ?pr? ?firm?/stock markup FraUD execrable, etc...
truth is, there's no better/more affordable/effective way that we know of, for J. to reach other J.'s &/or their respective markets.
the overbullowned greed/fear based phonIE marketeers are self eliminating by their owned greed/fear/ego based evile MiSintentions. they must deny the existence of the power that is dissolving their ability to continue their self-centered evile behaviours.
as the lights continue to come up, you'll see what we mean. meanwhile, there are plenty of challenges, not the least of which is the planet/population rescue (from the corepirate nazi/walking dead contingent) initiative.
EVERYTHING is going to change, despite the lameNT of the evile wons. you can bet your
we weren't planted here to facilitate/perpetuate the excesses of a handful of Godless felons. you already know that? yOUR ONLY purpose here is to help one another. any other pretense is totally false.
pay attention (to yOUR environment, for example). that's quite affordable, & leads to insights on preserving life as it should/could/will be again. everything's ALL about yOUR motives.
take care, we're here for you.
Hey, I like trolls. They're funny and really tasty after being slow roasted over an open pit.
It's all fun and games until someone loses the key to the handcuffs.
BTW, is there anyone who would be interested in forwarding this to Linus or posting it on the LKML? I'd love to know what they think of this response, but I'm, uh, too shy - believe it or not - to intrude on their territory without an introduction.
ESR should "inform the proper authorities", but are you arguing that Saddam Hussein should be returned to power?
Burn in hell, straw man.
If you were blocking sigs, you wouldn't have to read this.
