Likely, and they will presumably sue the software developers for infringing
on their intellectual property (after all they seem to think the GPL doesn't
matter when they don't want it to matter...). Hummm, because of the AT&T
settlement SCO can NOT go after the guts of the BSDs, in a few months do
think we will hear SCO talking about how there is source code in SCO that
has been "directly copied" in FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc...?

Colin.
