Groklaw Outlines More SCO Linux Contributions
An anonymous reader writes "Groklaw today reported that they have discovered another SCO programmer, Tigran Aivazian, who has committed code to the Linux kernel. According to the latest story Mr. Aivazian contributed a microcode update feature, a testing program, and made contributions to SMP and vmalloc. This new story adds weight to earlier stories about Caldera coder Chris Hellwig's additions to XFS, SMP and JFS. " Also on the SCO front, an anonymous reader writes "SCO's last Open Letter has drawn two new responses, one from Red Hat cofounder Bob Young, and the other from Jon 'maddog' Hall. 'maddog' makes a carefully reasoned rebuttal that defends the GPL and includes observations like 'How could the founding fathers or the early legislators have foreseen the Web, or even computers?' Young curtly offers McBride the following advice: 'Be less vocal' - making him the King Canute of Linux, perhaps, because it ain't gonna happen anytime soon."
How "carefully reasoned" can a piece be by a guy called maddog???
Stop by my site where I write about ERP systems & more
Now that the Denial of Service stuff is over with, we can get back to the regular SCO articles...
Though it would be fun for everyone who reads Slashdot to send SCO a letter in complaint of their business practices, especially if they were all sent within the same week. Would they try to call receiving a million pieces of mail in six days an 'attack' too?
Do not look into laser with remaining eye.
"Hello! Hello, McBride!!! Anybody home?"
Well, it's more Biff Tannen, but it's a descendant of Mad Dog.
Other Mad Dog quotes:
"We have ourselves a new court house, high time we had a hanging!"
"What's wrong dude, you yellow?"
And perhaps the most appropriate:
"I hate manure!"
The site to read when you want to see whatever was on Groklaw 48 hours ago.
I say this is a deep-cover infiltration operation.
The owls are not what they seem
Not to by cynical but if I had millions of dollars and didn't have to work I could stand to be more vocal about how I really felt about things too.
Announcing... (drumroll)
SCO Countdown
Countind Down To The End Of This fiaSCO!
Hey I resemble that remark!
The more you know, the less you understand.
