  1. good now maybe they can get plugins on Mozilla Thunderbird 0.2 Released · · Score: 1

    good now maybe we can get plugins that are not like 2 years behind the times. I for one cannot wait until we have a REAL media player. Not some worn out skeleton of one.

    come on everyone together now:


    Oh the weather outsides delightful.
    And McBride is surely frightful.

    In case you didnt know
    Bite me SCO, Bite me SC0, Bite me SCO.

    Well, the SCO boys are surely crazy,
    Too much crack makes their intellects lazy.

    In case you didnt know:
    Bite me SCO, Bite me SCO, Bite me SCO.

    When we finally go to court,
    How I hate dressing up for the day,
    But if Blue really gets real mad.
    you will just get blown AWAY.

  4. i have a question on SCO Amends Suit, Clarifies "Violations", Triples Damages · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If SCO is claiming that smp is one of the big problems they have with Linux, I wonder if users of multiprocessors have an alternative? Surely there are alternatives. Does grid, or distributed computing use SMP? If so, how come Oak Ridge National Labs in Tennessee had a qroking cluster in the mid 1990's that was like the 17th fastest computer on earth and running on linux? I think they wrote their software from scratch to best of my recollection. Peace yall, please don't kill me now. My Karma sucks, but i still try!

    Dear SCO
    1. As a concerned Open Source Advocate I have been wrangling with your statements of late. I finally think I have wrapped my mind around them in a fair manner. First of all if you are suing for trade secrets, then the smp, and libraries etc.. are no longer secret so you may sue for damages, but your secrets are still OUT. This means to me that if any sysV code is included in Linux then it no longer can be controlled under "trade secrets". Maybe it can under patents but patents expire. Secrets do not unless they are comprimised. You have actively participated in the development of of both Linux And Unix since the mid to early 1990's and before with regards to Unix. Your developers cannot work on SMP or scalabilty in Linux and not see the source, so you must have known that the offending code was there years ago. If it is there. This is gross negligence on your part not ours. Also, under your SCO-Source initiative you claim that you want to license the Unix sysV libraries to Linux, even though you seem to say in the same paragraph that the native Linux libraries are "clean". If this is a marketing plow to sell more Unis on Linux solutions please stop. As a concerned individual I do not see how a company such as yourselves that "merged unix and linux" together can suddenly have a flash and see so clearly when before you claim you did not know. If the offending code has been there all along, then you are probably the ones that put it there. Maybe the new SCO should sue the old SCO leadership. That might be the first place to look.I just dont get how the you the "owner" hahah- of Unix can help develop Linux and not know. I mean you have had developers wading through the guts of Linux for 10 years now, and the same developers probably came from Unix. I am sorry to offer a cliche phrase but, the pot cannot call the kettle black. You had to have known and condone any infringment period Whether you are incorporated as the old SCO or new SCO doesn't matter. Decisions were probably made by your employees and ex-managment that your new SC0 managment doesnt agree with. Im sorry but you cannot turn back the clock SCO. You cannot have your cake and eat it too. If you are still supplying the source code to your linux flavour then you admit that you know that your code is there but you make the conscious choice to open source it. It doesnt matter that you say you did not know 2 years ago. You know now and you are still giving the source. You cant be an Indian giver. You either are, or are not, open source. It is cut and dried. Clean and simple. Sue me if you will.
