OPPORTUNITY
SCO has, as you might be aware, been in discussions with
many investors over the past several months. Stephen L. Norris, of
Carlyle Group in Washington DC, has been in discussions with SCO
officers over the past several months. Talks have focused on a major
capital infusion that will bring us out from Chapter 11
reorganization. Jeff Hunsaker, president of SCO Operations, Darl
McBride, president of The SCO Group, and Stephen L. Norris, formed a
discussion panel to conclude the Keynote presentation.
Norris spoke of his interest in SCO, and in building upon the
strengths and commitments that were identified earlier in the keynote
presentation. He said that the strengths which he sees as vital to
SCO's future are its customers and its products.
"SCO finds itself in the enviable position of having products that are
part of a seventeen billion dollar industry," he said. "Why the
investors whom I represent are so excited about the business prospects
of working with SCO is the commitment of SCO to backward-compatibility
of all its products -- going all the way back to Xenix -- and the
loyalty of customers like yourselves."
SCO Forum Breakout Sessions -- Presentations
As usual, Forum had a number of technical breakout sessions. All
presentations for the following sessions are available here:

Norris isn't with the Carlyle Group. He used to be so that part isn't truthful.
It's certainly true that SCO has always issued fixes and patches for all its products, including

This SLS supersedes SLS net382a, net382b, net382c, net382d
and net372a, as it contains all fixes that are part of these earlier
SLSs and more. It is safe to install this SLS on top of any of
the five previous SLSs, but the older SLSs should not be installed
on top of SLS net382e.
