Novell Inc. of Provo said it believes it owns the copyrights for Unix, and it has applied for and received copyright registrations.

 

This story seems to get more interesting with new press release, but this one seems pretty funny if nothing else. With Novell claiming to still own the Unix copyrights, this could have a huge impact on this case if there is actually anything behind the Novell claims.

There was an email by Linus Torvalds that I read yesterday. He said that the SCO claims to some of the code is flatout wrong. He wrote the code himself in 1991. SCO under pressure released the source to the disputed code and after Linus looked at it he found bugs that he admits to putting in the code because he was a newbie and made newbie mistakes.

I'll post the article later this evening.

Yea, I read that earlier on one of the newsfeeds. Thought it was pretty funny. Something about "horrible macros" that he made when he was just starting :)
