| Intel contributes to anti-SCO Linux fund |
|---|
Intel has become involved in the legal battle between the SCO Group and Linux, contributing money to a defence fund geared to protect users of the open source operating system.
The Open Source Development Labs, an industry consortium that employs Linux leader Linus Torvalds, is organising the legal defence fund. OSDL plans to announce details of the fund later today.
"It would be made available to some Linux customers that come under litigation from SCO," said the OSDL's executive director, Stuart Cohen. A sub-committee of the consortium's board of directors will decide how to allocate funds, he said.
