IBM will only focus on ending this with the minimum of effort
Authored by: Gringo_ on Saturday, June 15 2013 @ 09:09 PM EDT

They will proceed dispassionately with single minded focus and economy of action toward that goal. I know they have the Lanham Act charges up their sleeve as a trump card should they need it, but if they can end this without having to play that card, they will. SCO is not worth their effort. Any act of "vengeance" will only raise SCO's status from an annoying cockroach under foot to some real, bona fide threat. I don't think they are interested in promoting SCO. They have nothing to gain from SCO. SCO is a has been who was never anything much beyond a brief moment of potential when they were promoting an honest product and Linux.

On the other hand, the fact that SCO got away with their obnoxious behaviour for 10 years with impunity, even though it was a suicide mission, is a grave injustice. The fact they got anything and everything they ever wanted from the bankruptcy court is a travesty. At a minimum Judge Kevin Gross needs to be removed from his post for his complacency. There needs to be an accounting for all their crimes, and nobody is going to do that if not us. It seems nobody in any position to do anything cares.

I recall, at some point, some comments being made that came from SCO servers (PJ
mentioned it in replies). I also noticed that some things mentioned here made
it into IBM's motions for Summary Judgment (yes, after being mentioned here).
So the best thing we could do is probably bring it up in comments here and let
PJ keep writing good articles.
