SCO code revealed – it’s BSD

Anonymous Reader writes “SCO did a big dog and pony show yesterday at their conference.
They also raised their claims, and according to them, there are “millions of lines” of offending code which they have identified by “rocket scientists” using “spectral recognition” and “pattern analysis”.

To convince SCOforum attendees of their case, SCO showed obscured slides which supposedly proved copying.

Research reveals that the code fragment SCO showed in one of their slides, doesn’t even belong to SCO – it’s from BSD. See for yourself, the code originated from, and is Copyright 1986 Regents of the University of California! And, while they might have more up their sleeve, it’s is revealing that the most compelling example they can show at their forum, doesn’t even belong to them!”
