A Discussion of SCO's Fate With Groklaw's Pamela Jones

Posted by Zonk on Tuesday November 27, 2007 @05:08AM from the going-down-the-tubes dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The SCO Group's current fate can be neatly summarized by the title of Pamela Jones' very first article on the case, back in May 2003 — 'SCO Falls Downstairs, Hitting its Head on Every Step.' In the intervening years PJ and Groklaw can be credited with unearthing and exposing many of the flaws in SCO's case, most notably, obtaining and publishing the 1994 settlement in the USL vs BSDi case. An article at the ITPro site interviews PJ about SCO, the impact of Groklaw and future of free software and the law."

PJ vs SCO... by MrAndrews · 2007-11-27 05:09 · Score: 4, Funny

Perhaps the most notable contribution PJ made to the SCO case was when it became clear Darl McBride was directing company strategy based on doing the opposite of what Groklaw contributors wanted...
However, the strategy appeared to backfire when, on September 14, 2007, CEO Darl McBride saw a comment that read, in part: "God, I hope they don't declare bankruptcy to try and get out of this mess."
