SCO/IBM legal issues

2003-08-10 Thread Andrew DeFaria
This probably doesn't effect Cygwin at all since AFAICT the SCO claims are about the Linux kernel and Cygwin has no real kernel as per se, however SCO seems to be just about challenging the whole GPL concept. Briefly SCO claims that since it owns the rights to certain pieces of Unix (through a

Controversial what if.... we disable ntsec by default again?
