SCO's case against IBM stands on shaky ground

Publication:LinuxWorldDate:Mar 12 2003

SCO's complaint consists of 136 averments — i.e., statements of fact — that form the basis of SCO's four main claims (called causes of action in the legal trade) against IBM. Every statement in a complaint is supposed to be truthful, and I think this is where SCO starts to run into trouble. If I were an advisor to IBM's legal team, I'd suggest looking closely at three suppositions that support almost all of SCO's arguments. Knocking any of the following would, I believe, all but destroy SCO's case.
