Robert,
Failing an actual ruling on the alleged copyright ownership or copyright
violation; is there a legal precedent anywhere where a ruling was made
against the plaintiff based on the likelihood that technological
advances could have accounted for the alleged similarities, if any (i.e.
between UNX code and portions of the Linux Kernel)?

Shawn, I know you are not a legal expert (maybe I should email this
question to Pamela Jones), but it would be good for Linux vendors to
have a ruling on both who actually owns the copyright and also whether
any code infringes on UNIX. I know everyone says that no infringement
has happened, but has that been established in legal framework?
What would have been optimal would have been to have SCO in court and
defeated on all charges.
