This is all a little strange. It seems to me that the IBM case would have to be set on hold until after the Novell case is settled. I mean how can you finish suing IBM for misuse/misappropration of IP until you've settled who the actual owner of the copyrighted material is? (That of course assumes any of said copyrighted material can be proven to belong to anyone in particular or that it has actually been misappropriated into other software;-)
Wow! We're down from millions of lines of code to 65 files! Since they are "focusing" on API related issues does that mean they think they have copyright on the all files ending in.h ?
Since litigation is the last resort of software companies that can no longer innovate, does this mean Microsoft is not an innovator? Maybe they lost their mojo!
