On Friday, the US Salt Lake City Federal Court made proposals, the central issue is that IBM said that IBM violates the contract agreement, which allows IBM to use SCO-controlled UNIX operating system code, SCO claims that IBM has a large number of soldux software used UNIX code, over. The boundary allowed by the contract.
IBM refused to comment on this matter.
SCO pointed out in a statement that "the SCO's explanation of the IBM performance contract is not satisfactory on the contract-derived work. The 1985 UNIX software contract is still poor than the writing contract. "
The proposal of the US Salt Lake City Federal Court also quoted the analysis of computer scientist Randall Davis in Massachusetts University. He analyzed the code of the Linux code to invade UNIX intellectual property rights. There is no source code in UNIX System V, and there is no code that is fully similar to Unix System V. "
At the same time, the proposal made by the court also pointed out that SCO could not say it, and the SCO was still selling Linux software products in two weeks, including software that suspected of infringement of intellectual property code. This is written in the proposal.
