IBM Denies Destroying Evidence in SCO Case
Rob writes "IBM Corp has denied claims made by SCO Group that it destroyed evidence relevant to
their ongoing breach-of-contract and copyright case, maintaining that SCO has had the
evidence in question in its possession since March 2005. SCO, which believes IBM breached
a contract by contributing Unix code to the Linux operating system, accused IBM of
destroying evidence in a July 2006 court filing, claiming that "IBM directed 'dozens'
of its Linux developers within its LTC [Linux Technology Center] and at least 10 of its
Linux developers outside... to
delete the AIX and/or Dynix source code from their computers.""
It's funny they don't seem to crop up anymore
Their bosses at MS told them to work on the Novell story spin and let the SCO thing go since everyone saw through that ruse.
I'm not joking. Astroturf is real and is happening.
I've had enough abrasive sigs. Kittens are cute and fuzzy.
All of those things would infringe on SCO's intelectual property.
