[Wolves] Novell wins vs. SCO: UNIX Copyrights NOT transferred

[Andy Jewell]

Hi guys,

The SCO v.s Novell Slander of Title case verdict is in... 

The copyrights were not transferred to SCO.

* Therefore Novell did not slander SCO's Title (to the copyrights).

* Therefore they have no case against Linux

* No case against IBM for inducing copyright infringement in Linux

* No case against Autozone for infringement by using Linux

* No case against Daimler Chrysler for infringement by using Linux

Of course, they will probably appeal.
