Anyone Familar With Maclay Murray & Spens? (2.66 / 3) (#16)

(User Info)

This article came out today. I could understand it coming out months ago, it's like timewarp FUD of something that would have been written like a year ago:

A win for SCO would have dramatic consequences for the open source movement, as the company would be entitled to go after the licence fees it could otherwise have received from IBM. This may result in many Linux users potentially facing claims from SCO - a threat which has prompted some users to already seek an indemnity from their supplier.

Like SCO has a snowball's chance.
