UnknowingFool writes "Everyone's favorite CEO Darl McBride took the stand on Wednesday April 30 in Novell v. SCO. Chris Brown has posted his account on Groklaw of the 2nd day of trial. The first day's account can be found here. To refresh your memory in this ongoing case, Judge Kimball has already ruled that Novell owns the copyrights to Unix and has practically dismissed all of SCO's claims. This portion of the trial is about Novell's counterclaims that SCO never paid them the money from the Sun and MS deals. What is to be determined in this trial is how much of the money from the deals were for Unix licensing (SVRx) and how much were for SCO's server technology (Unixware)." (Read on for the rest, below.)

Egan Orion the Inquirer , Saturday 3 May 2008. 12:22:00 Wrong lawsuit, same judge SCO GROUP CEO Darl McBride again said that UNIX "System V is in Linux" when he testified in the Novell v. SCO lawsuit on Wednesday. McBride's statement contradicted the just prior testimony of SCO SVP Chris Sontag, as well as the company's internal memos from 2002, which concluded that SCO's... ...

Let's continue with our look at the trial testimony and finish up day 2 with our version of the transcripts with line numbers, the testimony of John Maciaszek. Our previous articles on day 2 covered the second day of Chris Sontag's testimony (which I put together with his first day, for logic and convenience), then Darl McBride's , and then Greg Jones' testimony . Those were Novell's witnesses, the ones it called. Novell's case having been fully presented, it was SCO's turn to put on its case, each side trying to present evidence to support their opening statements . The first SCO witness called is John Maciaszek. We've seen him before on paper, and so has Judge Dale Kimball. But this is our first opportunity to watch him in person. I think by the end of his testimony, SCO's argument that UNIX System V and UnixWare are the same thing completely unravels. ...

Amikor tavaly augusztusban Dale Kimball bíró úgy ítélkezett , hogy a Novell a UNIX és a UnixWare jogok tulajdonosa, úgy tűnt, hogy kifullad a szappanopera, a SCO előbb-utóbb belátja, hogy tévedett és nem erőlteti tovább ezt az ügyet. Nem így történt. Az ítélet, miszerint a Novell sosem adta át a SCO-nak a UNIX jogokat, magában hordozta egy, a Novell részéről indított viszontper lehetőségét, aholis a Novell megpróbálhatja behajtani a SCO által számára ki nem fizetett jogdíjakat. A per elkezdődött a héten, az Ars Technica jelen volt. Darl McBride, a SCO vezérigazgatója a tárgyaláson kifejtette, hogy a SCO birtokolja a UNIX jogokat és, hogy "számos Linux hozzájáruló eredetileg UNIX fejlesztő volt". "Bizonyítékunk van arra, hogy a System V a Linux-ban van." továbbá kijelentette, hogy "A Linux a UNIX egy másolata, nincs különbség [köztük]." McBride egy hasonlattal szerette volna kifejezni, hogy a Linux nem létezik (?): "Ha bemegy egy könyvesboltba és benéz a UNIX szekcióba, akkor ott vannak "Hogyan programozzunk UNIX-ot" könyvek, azonban, ha elsétál a Linux szekcióhoz és keresi a "Hogyan programozzunk Linux-ot", akkor nem fog találni [ilyet], mert nem létezik." Az Ars Technica cikke itt . A témával jogi oldalról foglalkozik a Groklaw itt . ...

Information on some of the issues in the SCO related lawsuits were identified in our website a couple of months back. On April 30th trial became underway to determine the scope of what SCO owed Novell in unpaid royalties regarding its unauthorized licensing of Novell’s copyrights. The proceedings went rather predictably with SCO latching on to certain technicalities on the timing of payments. [[ This is a content summary only.

Darl McBride tiene el puesto de CEO de SCO una empresa se supone famosa por su Unixware, resultan lamentables y con un alto grado de ignorancia las declaraciones del ejecutivo: Cuando vas a una librería y echas una ojeada a la sección de UNIX, hay libros sobre "Cómo programar en UNIX". pero cuando vas a la sección de Linux y buscas libros sobre "Cómo programar en Linux" no... ...

ArsTechnica was there to catch CEO SCO describing an interesting variant of reality . Highlights include objectively verifiable claims that books on how to program Linux don’t exist , that there is no difference between Linux and Unix, and directly contracting his own SVP’s earlier testimony that they have evidence that System V Unix is in Linux. Don’t be shocked if he later claims Shakespeare copied System V, that Linus assassinated JFK, and that Poland was never dominated by the Soviet Union. ...
