IBM has escalated its legal counterattack on The SCO Group, filing new
claims on Thursday in the U.S. District Court in Utah alleging that SCO has
infringed IBM's copyright.

...

SCO spokesman Blake Stowell disputed the idea that SCO could no longer
distribute Linux. "We're the copyright holder for the core Unix operating
system. If we want to charge someone a licensing fee for using our
copyrighted software that's gone into Linux, then we have that prerogative,"
he said. "If we want to continue to distribute Linux to our existing
customers, we can do that because we own the copyrights on that Unix
software." 


I think SCO doesn't know it's copyright from its copyleft. :)

Ok, that was bad. Gimme a break, it's Friday night and I'm still at work.

Looking forward to seeing the GPL defended in court. This will be a history
making moment for the free software movement!
