IBM-477 - Ron Saint Pierre Memo - Exhibit 10 to Evans Declaration |

And we're off and running with the transcriptions of the newly redacted SCO documents. This is Exhibit 10 to the Declaration of Jeremy O. Evans in Support of SCO's Reply Brief in Further Support of its Supplemental Memorandum Regarding Discovery, #477 on the docket. Our thanks to chotchki for doing it for us. It's his first time volunteering, so welcome aboard. He had to view it at 300% just to make it out, so he picked a hard one. Happily it's short. If anyone can figure out why SCO offered this exhibit, please inform the rest of us. It looks to me like it proves IBM's point, that IBM did in fact sincerely try to get Project Monterey airborne.

Perhaps some of the beta testers has offered testimony in SCO's favour? [ Reply to This | # ]

Well, here we are! A totally content-free
exhibit.
My guess is that someone came across a memo
that mentioned "Monterey." "Wow! It must be
important," exclaimed the SCOG expert.

Might be wrong and I'm sure some one will tell me, but I dug a little more -
specifically looking at the companies IBM nominated. A quick google on the
companyn names and the only one that has any correlation to Open Source is
Scriptic.
The company of John Ousterhout, CEO, Scriptics Corp. and creator of the Tcl
scripting language.
So is/are SCO trying to make some sort of connection I wonder?

"...Terry - your approval is assumed if I don't hear from you in 48
hours..."
doesn't this sound slightly strange ?

I use this frequently when negotiating permissions for distributing freeware
programs on our cover CD, in particular the wording I have in their license is
unclear. If I state my intention clearly to an appropriate person, and they
don't reply, I've done due dilligence.
Of course, on more intricate agreements and contracts it's not that simple, but
it's a very workable way to get simple things done fast. In this context, it
looks like a routine remark from someone keen to go ahead on the project.[ Reply to This | # ]

Since there doesn't seem to be anything juicy in what we have here, I'm guessing
that the good stuff is in the section that's still missing. Judging from the
context, I'd guess that the missing text implies that IBM wasn't trying hard
enough. --- ===== Murphy's Law is recursive. ===== [ Reply to This | # ]

When the document says "REDACTED AT IBM'S REQUEST", is that
necessarily so or can this be mileading in any way...[ Reply to This | # ]

IN the top right corner it says:
[handwritten: Toronto's Approval
(negative confirmation)
There seems to be a page 2 whicxh has been redacted entirely.
Is it possible that the next page was Terry's answer from Toronto and that it
was a negative confirmation?
Another possibility is that the email addresses themselves were redacted. Enough
to identify the persons, without revealing the actual email addresses?
I'm just guessing wind here.

Haha, this guy is so full of grudges. He is making a carreer out of blasting
people who did him wrong: IBM, Linux, SCO.
The longer he lives, the longer the list will become.[ Reply to This | # ]
