Sun & MS simply agreed not to sue each other.  That doesn't mean there's
anything to sue about, though that doesn't stop some, as demonstrated by
SCO.

Subject: [users] Openoffice - is it legal?

Hi

I have only recently started using Openoffice, but lately I have
seen a = lot of websites talking about a legal action between Sun and
Microsoft, = and an agreement that Microsoft reserves the right to
sue openoffice = users.
Care to post a link or two to such story?

Microsoft reserves the right to
sue openoffice = users.

If a private citizen has a valid complaint, corporate lawyers label that as a frivolous lawsuit. If Microsoft files a frivolous against a private citizen, well thats OK.

I see this as a ploy by Microsoft to intimidate the user. You can bet that they would take you to court if they thought they could win.

They are just trying to bully you.
