SCO Caught Copying

← Back to Stories (view on slashdot.org)

linuxwrangler writes "While accusing everyone else of copying "their" code, SCO has meanwhile been caught copying documentation. In fact they copied several chapters of the Book of Webmin directly into their online documentation. While the book is available online, it is not licensed for redistribution. Details are sparse but it appears that SCO had to pay the publisher for using the material."

This news came out a day or two ago. Sometimes Slashdot gets way behind on news.

  Must have been too many stories in the pipeline or yesterday was busy and today is slow. In any case, I posted this story to /. sometime yesterday and it just hit the front page now.
