Darl & SCO Overview

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the here's-the-situation dept.

HAL9OOO writes "I found an article that as well as giving a good overview of "SCO - The Story So Far" also provides an interesting insight into the character of a certain Mr Darl McBride Esq." It's a fairly lengthy article providing a lot of insight. Necessary reading to anyone new the SCO/Linux thing, and recommended to anyone who just wants some interesting details on SCOs position on the whole thing.

    ill point this out:
    "We haven't published the exact number yet," McBride said. "It's not in the dozens, but it's, you know, we've had some that have started to sign up."
    is that supposed to make sense?
    Does one count as any?

    How long between the original posting and when a note's posted on the story? Place your bets now.

    From the article:
    SCO insists Big Blue owes it billions for allegedly illegally contributing UNIX code to the Linux kernel--the core chunk of code underlying most distributions of the Linux operating system.

    Boy...that's interesting. Anybody care to point me to a Linux distro whose underlying functionality comes from somewhere other than the Linux kernel?
