Groklaw Debunks SCO's ELF Heist

Xenographic writes "Following SCO's earlier claims that ELF really belonged to them, in this Groklaw article, we find enough proof to show that SCO does not and never could have owned ELF or any part of it. Moreover, it shows that their real motive in this is to desperately raise new issues to stave off IBM's motion for summary judgement on IBM's 10th counterclaim. For those who don't remember, that's the one where IBM asked for certification that their Linux activities did not violate any of SCO's copyrights, and SCO replied (with forked tongue) that the case against IBM wasn't about copyrights... Let the "Santa Claus Organization" jokes commence."

    As you may have heard, ECFA (Euthanasia for Canus Familirous Association) has purchased the GNAA (G** N***** Association of America) for an unspecified amount. Many people have had questions about the "connection" of the two associations. Thus, here's a FAQ:

    Q. Why is the GNAA connecting into one ECFA?
    A. Because both the GNAA and ECFA share one common goal, A HAPPIER MANKIND.

    Q. Will the illicit images and homosexuality continue?
    A. Unfortunately, these will not be a part of the combined ECFA, as we are moving to a broader demographic.

    Q. What will the ECFA stand for?
    A. Euthanasia for Canus Familirous Association.

    Q. Why is the ECFA right for me?
    A. Have you stepped in dog doo-doo? Do you hate dogs? Want to kill dogs? The ECFA is for you!

    Q. Will the GNAA "early posts" continue?
    A. Yes, these will continue, but their messages will be changed.

    Q. What will the new ECFA do?
    A. The ECFA would like you to do one thing - KILL A DOG. By KILLING A DOG, you will ELIMINATE one USELESSLY RESPIRATING animal from this planet. Take a stand! Help rid this INFESTATION. KILL A DOG TODAY!!!!

    Q. Why do you kill dogs?
    A. Are you TIRED of having your TAXES increased? Humane Societies cost our country over $100 million annually. By eliminating DOGS, this money can EDUCATE OUR KIDS. OVERPOPULATION of DOGS is RAPANT in this country. One dog can easily use the entire oxygen output of ten full size trees. One dog can output over 20 lbs of droppings daily. One dog can aggrivate the allergies of untold numbers of people with its fast growing hair and all to common dandruff. Do you own a dog? Are you tired of its mess? Don't feel like planting ten trees and waiting 10 years for them to reach maturity? Then get it euthanized. Euthanasia is a painless way for a dog to... terminate. However, it can be too expensive to buy these drugs for the LARGE NUMBER of DOGS in the HUMANE SOCIETIES. It is thus proposed that these dogs be turned into food for the homeless. One dog can feed up to five homeless children for one day.

    Q. Will my favorite content still be available?
    A. Yes! ECFA will be a combonation of both GNAA and ECFA. Here's the listing of content that will be used from both associations:
    GNAA: troll pattern, basic format, troll network
    ECFA: motto (To protect our oxygen, to clean our streets, and to curb noise pollution), message, and all your favorite existing ECFA troll messages

    Q. Will I be required to change my skin color or sexual lifestyle to be a member?
    A. no. People of all skin colors and sexual lifestyles are welcome. The GNAA/ECFA do not support any sexual lifestyle, skin color, or race.

    Q. Where's all the content?
    A. We're pulling all existing GNAA content offline on "ECF day", when we will officially connect. All your favorite ECFA content will still be available.

    Q. How do I join the ECFA?
    A. By simply participating in our propaganda campaign to exterminate dogs. You can become a member of our slashdot trolling team, our usenet trolling team, or you can be a member of our local campaigning - by simply handing out brocures or posting signs outside humaine socities.

    Q. What is ECFA/GNAA's stance on cats?
    A. We're indifferent about cats.

    Q. How do I kill a dog?
    A. Euthanasia is by far the most clean method, but it taints the meat and is cost prohibitive. Thus, the most economical method is our K9Zap product ($29.95), which deals a fatal shock to a dog up to 60lbs. Alternatively, the slightly messier bakers chocolate approach costs only about $0.30 per pound of dog. For more information, reply to this message or contact Gadgets for the Elimination of Dogs (GED).
