The only rationale I can see for SCO's deposing of RMS would be to
expose his (low) opinion of software patents.
Oral arguments are scheduled for 5 December, when I expect to see
SCO's suit to be dismissed with prejudice.
IBM and RedHat will be free to pursue their suits (respectively
for resraint of trade and copyright/patent infringement) against SCO.
Perhaps SCO might survive long enough to call RMS to the stand.
I really don't actually expect any net effect on GNU/Linux.
I'm no more a lawyer than Larry, though.
