Boycott SCO


Quote:

The SCO Group (aka Caldera Systems) has launched a major threat to
the Linux OS by suing IBM for $1 billion for IP violations. Their
core argument is that Linux would have remained a hobbyist OS if
IBM had not leaked SCO's Unix IP into it.

This is bad because:

o It creates a lot of FUD about the legality of linux and the
safety of corporate IP when Free/Open Source Sotware is used.

o It implies that we (the Free and Open Source community) do not
have the competence to produce quality software without stealing
IP.

This, therefore, is a call to boycott all Caldera and SCO products.
Do not use or recommend the use of:

* Caldera OpenLinux
* SCO Linux
* SCO OpenServer
* SCO UnixWare
