And yea, behold the /.-provided top 10 Linus quotes on the SCO blow:
http://www.linuxworld.com/story/38138.htm
Dennis' offering is listed as #3; my favorite is this, #5:
"Quite frankly, I found it mostly interesting in a Jerry Springer kind of
way. White trash battling it out in public, throwing chairs at each other.
SCO crying about IBM's other women. ... Fairly entertaining"
I also appreciated the suggestion that SCO is playing the US legal system
like a lottery.... (see #8). #7 is also on-topic for our Eugene UGLUG:
"So . . . when he attacks the GPL as being somehow against 'financial gain',
that notion that the GPL has of 'exchange of receipt of copyrighted works'
is actually EXPLICITLY ENCODED in the US copyright law. It's not just a
crazy idea that some lefty commie hippie dreamed up in a drug-induced
stupor."
Cheers from New Mexico!
