A propos de SCO sur la kernel mailing-list

Ce petit passage dans le dernier Kernel Traffic :

« Elsewhere, Christoph Hellwig replied to the original post as well, saying:

As somone who walked for SCO (or rather Caldera how it was called at that time) I can tell you this is utter crap. There were very people actually doing Linux kernel work then (and when the German office was closed down all those left the company) and we really had better things to do then trying to retrofit UnixWare code into the linux kenrel. Especially given that the kernel internals are so different that you'd need a big glue layer to actually make it work and you can guess how that would be ripped apart in a usual lkml review :)

It might be more interesting to look for stolen Linux code in Unixware, I'd suggest with the support for a very well known Linux fileystem in the Linux compat addon product for UnixWare..

Jim Nance said, "Wouldnt it be halirous if whatever code SCO is talking about when they say there is Unix code in Linux turns out to be code some SCO employee ripped out of some GPL program and stuck it into Unixware. That is actually far more likely than what they alledge." »

Mince, je pensais que le bouton allait prévisualiser le journal au lieu de le valider illico. Du coup, j'ai oublié l'URL : http://kt.zork.net/kernel-traffic/latest.html#6(...)
