- How can anyone take SCO seriously?
-
For a company with a CEO with so much hated of OpenSource and the GPL, to produce a product that contains an OpenSource product is absolutely bass ackwards.
UnixWare 7.1.3 contains:
"Support for Popular Open Source Components Native SCO UnixWare ports of Mozilla, OpenSSL, OpenSLP, OpenSSH, Apache, Samba, Squid, Cdrtools have been added to the optional services CD. These components are all fully supported components on UnixWare 7.1.3"
It will run Linux:
"Linux Kernel Personality (LKP)has been upgraded to provide worldwide, multi-byte language support. It doesn't contain a Linux kernel, but does contain the RPMs needed to run most applications. This new release runs a wider range of applications and has better performance than prior releases."
McBride:
"In an open letter posted on the SCO Web site Thursday, McBride argues that the General Public License (GPL) that underlies distribution of Linux, a Unix-derived operating system, is unconstitutional because it violates copyright and patent laws established by Congress. He also sharply criticizes two of SCO's most aggressive adversaries who, he says, do not believe in federally mandated copyright protection." ZDNET
For a company and a man who hates Linux and GPL so much, do us a favor and get out of the software business/licensing business you flake. Adding OpenSource to any licensed product shows what a moron you are. Create your own damn webserver and stop using the free stuff for profit. - Posted by: defender2803 Posted on: 06/15/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
