Congratulation LINUX, GROKLAW, PJ and NOVELL: NOVELL WINS AGAINST SCO :-)

Now after 7 years the SCO vs. Novell case is practically over with a clear WIN FOR LINUX :-)

I am thankful for the tireless effort from PJ and the rest of the Groklaw team, Novell and IBM to stand up for Linux. This case has showed how meaningless and stupid some of the proprietary business practice business. Unbelievable.

From the Novell website:

"Today, the jury in the District Court of Utah trial between SCO Group and Novell issued a verdict.

Novell is very pleased with the jury’s decision confirming Novell’s ownership of the Unix copyrights, which SCO had asserted to own in its attack on Linux. Novell remains committed to promoting Linux, including by defending Linux on the intellectual property front.

This decision is good news for Novell, for Linux, and for the open source community."
