 SCO Group - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
SCO OpenServer, another UNIX operating system, which was originally developed by Santa Cruz Operation.
The SCO Group is currently involved in a dispute with various Linux vendors and users.
In late 2004, SCO decided to unite their two operating sytems (UnixWare and OpenServer) so that, while having differing operating environments, would share a common kernel, SVR5.

 SCO History
SCO used to have a free OpenServer CD for evaluation and for non-commercial use available at http://stage.caldera.com/offers/license.html that you could use to test if your SCO Xenix or SCO Unix binaries will work.
SCO produced XENIX 386, for Intel 386 processors, in 1987.
SCO has their claim to the unix source at http://www.sco.com/scosource/ and the unix history at http://www.sco.com/scosource/unixtree/unixhistory01.html

 Judge orders SCO to show Linux infringement CNET News.com
SCO is seeking source code to versions of Unix that IBM has developed and sold.
The information IBM sought is at the heart of the case, a bold lawsuit SCO began in March that alleges IBM moved technology from Unix to Linux against the terms of its contract with SCO, violating trade secrets in the process.
IBM argues that SCO's distribution of a Linux product means it has agreed to the GPL's terms and therefore given permission to use that particular Unix technology in Linux.

The legal zealots at SCO reckon Linux has grown up too fast by nicking technology such as support for large SMP systems from its copyrighted Unix code.

 E-032 SCO
SCO Group's first legal action was to announce enforcement of licensing for a code library that allows software written for SCO Unix to be run on Linux systems without recoding or recompiling.
SCO Group's top executives have embarked on an irrational adventure I can only describe as suicidal, and highly damaging not only to SCO Group, but to all businesses that publish Unix and Linux software and users of Unix and Linux.
SCO Group is threatening SGI (Silicon Graphics Inc.), a major manufacturer of high end engineering workstations and graphics processing computers, with charges similar to those against IBM (B8).

 SCO
Were SCO to prevail, it might hinder development of Linux and make the general public’s ability to obtain it difficult.
SCO made money on Unix, some of it even from Microsoft.
It could also have an adverse effect on other Open Source projects which are developed and distributed in ways that are similar to the Linux model.

 I, Cringely . May 29, 2003 - Going for a Streak-Free Finish PBS
But it is Unix completely redesigned and rewritten.  I doubt it has very little in common with the original Unix licensed from AT&T however long ago.  I think SCO will have a big challenge finding anything in AIX that bears resemblance to their Unix, much less anything in AIX that may be in Linux.
Yes, IBM put more effort and lines of code into an S/390 port of Linux.  However, the result certainly would not have been anything anyone else could use, and certainly wouldn't be something SCO could lay claim to.
IBM has kept its AIX version of Unix viable and distinctly separate.  The latest generation, version 5.xL, includes mainframe (S/390) logical partitioning.  This OS exploits the capabilities of IBM's multiprocessor p6x0 series technology.  Linux has nothing like this logical partitioning, nor does SCO.

 GROKLAW
Denied SCO's Motion for all of everything related to Linux (to the extent that IBM had already agreed to provide everything linux-related from those programmers who SCO would be deposing)
The word adjourned is misspelled in the original, by the way, but I never correct any court filings or notations in the docket.
So Marten's optimistic interpretation that SCO approaching them means they possibly are softening on the GPL issue, or may in the future, is, in my view, precisely that, optimistic, at best.
