Grokline's UNIX Ownership History Project has been launched.
QuoteThis is an open, community-based, collaborative research project, a living history, designed to carefully trace the ownership history of UNIX and UNIX-like code with the goal of reducing, or eliminating, the amount of software subject to superficially plausible but ultimately invalid copyright, patent and trade secret claims against Linux or other free and open source software.

Your future is unfolding before your eyes, maybe you should open them.
That sucking sound you hear is my bandwidth.

That's a good project, I'm glad she's doing it.  People running companies like SCO, and their investors, will never be held accountable for their scams, so preventing them in advance is the next-best thing.

Grokline will make it inplausible for any reasonable judge to take SCO-like claims seriously in the future, without significant corroboration of evidence that is not already in account on Grokline.
