While SCO no longer sells Linux, in order to support their current user base, their ftp server still has the Linux source RPMS as required by GPL. So even as they argue that they no longer sell Linux, they are distributing the (disputed) kernel source. They have no choice; failure to distribute the source will place them in violation of the GPL, but distributing it (with the IP they are calling into question) undermines their position. I think they've effectively got themselves in a lose-lose position.
SCO still distributing Linux under GPL
