Linux obviosly has none of sco's ip in it. if it did IBM would have at the very least released a clean version of linux which they could easily do since they obviously have the code which they supposedly put in linux. What worries me is the ease with which a dishonest company "cough" microsoft "cough" could plant their own code into linux so that they could then claim their ip was stolen and how easily they could change the comments on their own pieces of code to make them the same their linux equivilents. These would appear to be evidence that code was illegaly copied into it when the competing companies "cough" microsoft "cough" are simply trying to slow down work on it and sow fud.
