How's this for good ol' "pass the buck"...

"9. What is the Red Hat lawsuit about?

Red Hat feels that SCO has made unfounded claims that threaten their
business and their customers. SCO has made numerous offers to allow Red Hat
to view some of the infringing code that is now being found in Linux. Red
Hat to this point in time has turned down all offers from SCO to view the
infringing UNIX source found in Linux. For further information about why Red
Hat initiated legal action, contact Red Hat. "

I don't recall SCO inviting Red Hat to view the offending code - other than
through the much mentioned "non-disclosure" agreement.

Also, $699 USD is WAY beyond most Linux user's budgets.  They are just
actively promoting piracy at those rates, if they have their day in court.

My thoughts....
