Subject: A quick and (relatively) easy response to this SCO BS
Date: Thu, 7 Aug 2003 11:49:41 -0600 (MDT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.53.0308071115210.12466@twu.net> (raw)
O great ones:
Some clever soul on Kuro5hin has posted information on how to obtain a
recent 2.4 kernel from SCO legally.
I strongly recommend that the kernel maintainers create a new "SCOlegal"
branch of the kernel, based on this source code. New drivers can simply be
backported back in, and voila, there's not a thing SCO can do about it.
If this is a waste of everyone's time, I beg your pardon. But given the
current bizarre state of affairs in US law, there is always a chance that
the SCO loonies might win. We need to be prepared. There is a chance,
however slight, that the entire GNU/Linux community could crumble
irrevocably as a direct result of this fiasco.
