Perens: SCO’s Proof is Bogus

The first publicly released sample that The SCO Group claims was improperly added to the Linux source code has every right to be in Linux, according to open-source advocate Bruce Perens. In analysis that he’s published on his web site, he notes that the code in question is copyrighted by AT&T, but has been released under the BSD license…twice! See tecChannel and lwn for an overview. In other SCO News, McBride has stated his intention to start lawsuits against “illegitimate” end users of the Linux OS.
