This is a disturbing piece of news.
Is it? I think these lines from the article about sum it up: "It is entirely possible that this deal was orchestrated behind the scenes by a player that stands to benefit from the perpetuation of SCO's litigation..." and "Despite this fresh infusion of cash, the ultimate outcome will probably not change much. SCO's case never had any basis in reality and no infusion of venture capital cash will ever change that."

It still has to get by the Novell & IBM lawyers and the bankruptcy court. Also, given that this has happened twice now and also this one is tied to Bill Gates, through that Saudi Prince and previously Microsoft "encouraged" investment by Baystar Capital, someone may start raising questions about tortious interference. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tortious_interference -- Use OpenOffice.org http://www.openoffice.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
