The saga continues...

> Unless I am missing something, I think the ballgame is over for SCO as far as their legal theory about derivatives having to be kept confidential and not being allowed to be donated to Linux. Novell by this letter "hereby directs SCO to waive any purported right SCO may claim to require Sequent (or IBM as its successor) to treat Sequent Code as subject to the confidentiality obligations or use restrictions of Sequent's SVRX license." They have until noon, February 11, to comply. This could be part of why SCO has been so quiet of late. The theory of their case may just have blown up in their face.

Nice to see this after staying up late tending to an unhappy Netware server.
