Default New Bogus claims from SCO

According to an interview given to that noted F/OSS hater, Daniel Lyons,
SCO is now going to claim that IBM used code from SVR4 in violation of
the Monterey agreement -- by using it on the Power PC platform and after
termination of the agreement.

Two problems with this -- the Monterey agreement is on Monterey, so we
can all read it:
1. The licenses granted to IBM continue even after termination of the
agreement.
2. The only limitation to using the software on Intel platforms applies
to SCO's use of IBM's software! It does NOT apply to IBM's use of SCO's
software.

Oh well, another claim: destroyed in a day.

As I have said many times before, if SCO really believed that SCOSource
were a real business, they would have registered the domain name
"http://scosource.com". The fact is someone else registered it and is
using it for a non-profit, apparently personal website.
