Since SCO doesn't seem willing to let the "public" know which code is 
considered "tainted", and

Since SCO seems to believe that IBM's "transgression" gives them control 
of the whole code base (for contractual reasons, but not being a lawyer I 
don't understand that position at all)

I suspect we are in for interesting times.

Since Ale-Central meets at the Law School, does anyone have a way of 
encouraging one or more of the students to write-up & present an 
appreciation of the situation for the layman?? Hopefully using a broad 
magic marker to make the outlines as some of us (me) still have trouble 
coloring within the lines 8-).
