And they have a report of Dr. Thomas A. Cargill, "on the Infringement of the Unix System V Release 4 Operating System by the Linux Operating System," which also doesn't bode well, since Linux is a kernel.

There is also a report of Dr. Evan Ivie, a "Valuation of Lost Asset" by Avner Kalay, an "Expert Report of Dr. Jeffrey Leitzinger," another by Gary Pisano, and "An Analysis of Certain Technological Issues," by Marc J. Rochkind again. His is the only name I recognize. I'll research the rest and share with you what I find. I think this is probably Dr. Cargill's page. If so, he's an "independent software consultant, specializing in Java and object-oriented programming" and the author of "C++ Programming Style", published by Addison-Wesley, 1992. Here's a page of his old bookmarks, which shows his interests, at least at the time, in 2000.

All of these reports were served on IBM on the 19th of May and filed with the court on the 24th. The Certificate of Service is signed by Ted Normand, so he's still on the case. I was afraid he was so humiliated by the Intel business, he had gone walkabout or signed up for time travel back to the court of Marie Antoinette to forget it all or been told to devote more time to his family or something.

Also the Order [PDF] giving IBM until May 30 to respond to SCO's Motion for in camera review of allegedly privileged documents has been signed by Magistrate Judge Brooke Wells.

Update: Here's what I find on Evan Ivie. He taught computer science at BYU. I gather he is now retired, and he's a consultant. He was a Bell Labs researcher who was one of the creators of the PWB.

He was an expert for Caldera, along with J.R.Kearl, by the way, in the Caldera v. Microsoft litigation (2:96-cv-00645-DB). Here's the docket, thanks to Frank Sorenson. And he was an expert for Novell in the Novell v. Timpanogas Research Group case. Here's something he wrote, " "The Programmer's Workbench—a Machine for Software Development," in 1977, which references a paper of Marc Rothkind's. It seems it's a small world.

And for what it's worth, here's some feedback from a couple of his students and some details from an article in Wired in 1999 on geneology, a subject Ivie is interested in. And here's an interesting email from Tim Bird, of Caldera, in 1997, which indicates Ivie is familiar with Linux.

You'll find Dr. Jeffrey Leitzinger [PDF] on that docket too. Microsoft filed a motion to exclude him as a nonexpert, but the case settled. He is an economist who does seem to know quite a lot about natural gas [PDF], in addition to evaluating damages in intellectual property cases, which is more to the point here.

Here, thanks to mwexler, is the text of the Certificate of Service.
