Hi Tom -
Back to the topic at hand . . . I was not under the impression that IBM
has distributed any Linux of it's own yet. I thought that IBM sells
SuSe or RedHat distros with it's servers. If you go to
www.ibm/com/linux the link for downloading goes to Turbolinux.
Linux is actually mostly just the kernel. The Linux distros have some
version of the kernel (which may have been changed by the distributor) plus
whatever shells, GUI interfaces, utilities, and applications that the
distributor wants to include.
I would imagine that all IBM is planning to do is include some
utilities/applications which provide features that IBM is already providing
for AIX.
If this is the case, these feature would not have ever been part of Unix
and so it is doubtful that SCO has a leg to stand. This is probably a ploy
hoping that IBM will shell out money rather than taking it to court.
