Before passing judgement on SCO, ask yourself this, "could SCO IP be embedded into the Linux kernal?"
It's not as simple as that. If there is any "SCO IP" in the Linux kernel, it needs to be established if SCO really own that IP and who put it there.
Let's remember that SCO used to be Caldera, and they had their own Linux distros for many years. If Caldera knowingly released what SCO claim to be their IP under the GPL, then the argument changes once again.
If it is, then there is a whole new light. However, I do believe that this should end up in court.
Yes, as long as it's done
quickly. The point is that SCO do not want it to get resolved quickly because it suits them better to take advantage of the uncertainty they have caused. Essentially, it's FUD.
My own judgement is not "reserved". It's not set in stone, but at any given time my judgement is based on the facts available to me. Since I have seen no proof of SCO's claim, I choose not to believe them.
Remember that Caldera/SCO is a failing company, run by incompetent management. They found they could not have a competitive product so they have decided to set fire to their own house and try to claim the insurance.
