Waitaminnit, doesn't this mean that SCO, formerly Caldera, has already
released their supposed IP, the UNIX source, under a BSD license,
meaning it is essentially freely distributable?

Or does "ancient UNIX releases (V1-7 and 32V)" *not* include the SysV
code they claim is still theirs and has been copied into the Linux
kernel?
