Then we find some friendly lawyers and defend ourselves, as we'd have to do whether or not we support SCO users by maintaining the Perl ports to SCO platforms. I think your hypothetical is irrelevant to the question of whether we continue to help the programmers and sysadmins whose management decided to use SCO. If you want to show support for the people fighting evil, donate to the FSF or EFF. In the immortal words of Larry Wall, "The Golden Gate wasn't our fault either, but we still put a bridge across it." Nat
