IBM developed JFS for OS/2, so SCO can't claim it.
That is IBM's claim, but it is disputed by SCO. Actually, there is the AIX version of JFS and the OS/2 version. IBM claims that the OS/2 version is the one they contributed (and I believe them), but the fact is that SCO is claiming that in their case.
Still, you'd have to accept SCO's bizarre definition of derivate works, one that apparently doesn't stick to stuff they develop from someone else's IP. Then there's the matter of copyrights. Since they don't own them, they can't sue over them, at least not without Novell's approval. -- Use OpenOffice.org <http://www.openoffice.org> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
