Of winewhores and lan party....infamy, James Conner isn't dead. He posted me a silly story about this nuisance of a lawsuit with SCO and IBM. I don't put any weight on it at all really. Even if the OSS movement had to roll back to 1.0 the talent is there to revamp in finite time. But that's not going to happen, because this is a scam; not sure who's, but it's a scam. This is all just corporate bullshit. Keep hacking and pass the bottle.

Opinion on the SCO/IBM/Linux furball?

What's your take on the mess? Given their less than spetacular showing of evidence at the Las Vegas SCO show, and their recent attacks on the GPL itself by declaring it overruled by copyright law, and so on ... It's certainly promising to be entertaining, at the very least.

But I feel that the one good thing that can come out of this mess is that the GPL is finally going to see it's day in court. If it passes being challenged, then it'd be a bit easier to get corporations to embrace OSS and develop for the OSS platforms.

BTW ... Hi Jim!
