A: SVR6 is the code name for the next-generation operating platform designed to take advantage of Web services and is the foundation of our SCOx strategy. As the owners of the UNIX operating system, it is incumbent upon SCO to advance the UNIX kernel for both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures. This will be accomplished through the support of key industry partners who will also contribute to this next-generation platform. SVR6 will be formally announced at our upcoming SCO Forum event to be held in Las Vegas, Nevada on August 17-19 at the MGM Grand Hotel.

This is becoming an alternate reality. Warren

I think that that was a slip of the tongue. At any rate, I don't think they have any intention of suing Linus. Maybe it's part of a FUD campaign.

I seriously wonder if there are any normal people with a sane mind there at SCO. I mean, it is so different from their previous antics in which they even allowed the old source code of the Unixes without any problems. -- Jeroen Ruigrok van der Werven <asmodai(at)wxs.nl> / asmodai / a capoeirista PGP fingerprint: 2D92 980E 45FE 2C28 9DB7 9D88 97E6 839B 2EAC 625B http://www.tendra.org/ | http://www.in-nomine.org/~asmodai/diary/ The quieter you become, the more you are able to hear...

They made a statement about it with the claim that they can't justify distributing it. My take is that they weren't making any money with it. > I seriously wonder if there are any normal people with a sane mind > there at SCO. I'm sure most are.

I have an ongoing analysis page at http://www.lemis.com/grog/sco.html which addresses most of these issues.
