Declaration of Amy Sorenson - as text
Friday, May 28 2004 @ 07:27 PM EDT

We are buried under an avalanche of documents filed as exhibits by the parties in the SCO v. IBM case, which we are busy scanning in from the paper format. Here, just to start, is the Declaration of Amy Sorenson, listing IBM's exhibits. This declaration is in support of IBM's Memorandum in Opposition to SCO's Motion to Dismiss or Stay Count Ten of IBM's Second Amended Counterclaims.

A great deal more will follow. Some of the exhibits are documents we have already, so we won't redo those, but as you will see, there are some new goodies. Thanks go to Henrik Grouleff for transcribing for us.

we've got at least an extra week to examine and savour these, so take your time
gang. I couldn't think of a way to help with the scanning, unless Kinko's or
Staples can scan and email, in which case, how about some donations to help with
the cost?

PJ,

I don't mean to be a nag, but I would really like to see exhibits 4, 5 and 7.
Are there links to these, or do we wait for transcription.

..on tools to drink up the avalanche... ;-)
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, May 29 2004 @ 12:30 AM EDT
...what _do_ you guys use?

..do we have a guideline idea for a preferrable tool set?

..I see 7 basic jobs in the tool chain:
0. Scan the papers,
1. OCR the scans for text and figures|tables|graphics etc,
2. proofread the texts, clean up figures|tables|graphics,
3. set up and maintain the database mill,
4. feed them into the Groklaw database mill,
5. htmlisation,
6. customizable presentation of the enjoyable evolutionary
pleadings. ;-)

..I'm onto 2 similar things, documenting my wee stunts in
thermochemical gasification ;-), and recycling the 130?
different language texts of the 4 Geneva Conventions,
to make a multi-language machine translator application.

..the 2 languages I've got native speaker level skills in,
are Norwegian and English, English is one of the 5 base
text languages of the 4 Geneva Conventions, so _I_ just
picked it. ;-)

New attorney for SCO

You can find him in Google. He was involved in the Napster case trying to
prevent the injunction.

He is also mentioned in 2002 press release in connection with BSF and Wide
Orbit, Inc.

FWIW, tuxrocks shows [157] Exhibit 29 as "coming soon," but I think we
already have it as [103] Exhibit 3.

Why is refered to as "Declaration of Amy Sorenson" rather than
something like "Declaration of List of Exhibits" or something? If
you're busy wading through a pile of documents, seems like remembering which
lawyer name went with which document would be a pain.

"Red Hat's successes, while making now mention of SCO's lawsuits . .

(should be "no mention . . ." ?)

Exhibit 3 Anxiously Awaited
Authored by: jldill22 on Saturday, May 29 2004 @ 09:30 PM EDT
Could we, please, please, have a copy of Exhibit 3, in pdf or text form asap.

It is SCO's response to Red Hat's motion lift the current judicially imposed
stay in the Red Hat lawsuit. The document appears as being availabe on
tuxrocks, both as an exhibit to the Sorenson declaration and as a document in
the Red Hat proceedings, but both links are broken and have been broken for at
least 24 hours, if they ever worked.
