That is símply not so. If one turns to what 15 the documents the court will see during this week of T6 trial will- show, and the very next slide it's the I1 December 2oo2 press rel-ease. sco's shared libraries -- _LO and it talks about unixware and openserver licensing L9 agreements did not allow those UNIX libraries to be 20 separated from the operating systems. 2I The January 2003 announcement, which talks 22 about SCO's UnixWare and OpenServer l-icense aqreements, 23 the February 2OO3 sales guide, which says precisely that 24 with respect to the shared library, the document and LJ repeatedly refers to sco's concern that unixvÍare 31 Case 2:04-cv-00139-TS Document 852-3 Filed 04/19/2010 Page 5 of 56 1 OpenServer technology have been improperly used in Linux. 2 In the July 2003 press release, where it says the company 3 also announced it wil-l offer UnixWare licenses to support 4 one-tíme binary use of Linux for al-l- commercial users of 5 Linux based upon certain terms. 6 So the evidence wil-I show that in fact 1 SCOsource, at its inception and throughout remained B concerned with technology that was in UnixWare and 9 OpenServer. 10 And the third point Ird l-ike to observe comes 11 off of a chart which Mr. Jacobs used which tries to draw 1,2 this distinction. It's the chart that was the timeline 13 where on the left-hand side you had SVRX and, on the I4 right-hand side, you had SCO UnixWare. And ít suqgrests l_5 that these are two different universes, that SVRX and SCO 16 UnixWare are somehow distinct and, if you're referring to 1'1 II SVRX¡ you're not incl-uding UnixWare, and vice-versa. 18 The reality is, is that there is not a 19 dichotomy in terms of the technology between UnixWare and ZU System V. UnixWare is System V technology. It is the 21 latest evol-ution of that. It is UnixVüare -- UNIX System 22 V, 4.2 MP. And this dichotomy that Novell- seeks to draw 23 between UnixWare and System V, with respect to the z4 technology, is simply not the case. And that's shown, for example, by documents such as Novel-l I s own sales JL-a Case 2:04-cv-00139-TS Document 852-3 Filed 04/19/2010 Page 6 of 56 1 binders for UnixWare, which says that this is the latest 2 implementation of UNIX System V, Release 4.2 MP 3 technology and repeats that many times as being the 4 l-atest generation of that use, that this is powerful, 5 scaIable, reliable UNIX System V, Rel-ease 5. 6 Thus, when we talk about our UnixWare rights, 1 when we talk about the System V license in the context of B SCOsource, that doesnrt mean something other than 9 UnixWare, that includes UnixWare. And that will be 10 important as we look at the fact that UnixWare has within 11 it the critical- System V technology, and SCO obtained the 12 right to license that technol-ogy and do other things with 13 that technology with third parties through the Sun I4 agreement, the Microsoft agreement and the SCOsource 15 agreement. L6 The question is valuation of for the I1 purposes of the APA, what is the value on the SVRX 1B rightsr âs defined in the APA, for that portion on which 19 that has to f low through to Novel-l-. 20 Now, if f can put that and let me, before 2I leaving that issue, refer to a couple of the documents aa LL that Mr. Jacobs referred to. He refers to a letter that 23 was sent out to a lot of people with respect to SCOsource .A ¿¿) lj-censing and it talked about are UNIX System V, but that 25 does not exclude UnixWare, which is part of System V 33 Case 2:04-cv-00139-TS Document 852-3 Filed 04/19/2010 Page 7 of 56 1 for those products, therefore Noveff is entitled only to a L a de minimus royalty with respect to its residual rights. 3 THE COURT: Thank you, Mr. Singer. 4 You may call- your first witness. 5 MR.

INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION; RED HAT, INC.; and NOVELL, INC., Defendants-Appellees. ____________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Indiana, Indianapolis Division. No. 1:05-cv-678 RLY-VSS—Richard L. Young, Judge. ____________ SUBMITTED OCTOBER 26, 2006—DECIDED NOVEMBER 9, 2006 ____________ Before EASTERBROOK, KANNE, and EVANS, Circuit Judges. EASTERBROOK, Circuit Judge. Does the provision of copyrighted software under the GNU General Public License (“GPL”) violate the federal antitrust laws? Authors who distribute their works under this license, devised by the Free Software Foundation, Inc., authorize not only copying but also the creation of derivative works—and the license prohibits charging for the derivative work. People may make and distribute derivative works if and only if they come under the same license terms as the original work. Thus the GPL propagates from user to user and revision to revision: neither the original author, nor any 2 No. 06-2454 creator of a revised or improved version, may charge for the software or allow any successor to charge. Copyright law, usually the basis of limiting reproduction in order to collect a fee, ensures that open-source software remains free: any attempt to sell a derivative work will violate the copyright laws, even if the improver has not accepted the GPL. The Free Software Foundation calls the result “copyleft.” One prominent example of free, open-source software is the Linux operating system, a derivative of the Unix operating system written by AT&T in the 1960s and now available without cost.

These groups are supported by some of the most powerful copyright holders and creative associations in the United States, such as the Motion Picture Association of America and the Walt Disney Corporation.1 They have not only altered public perception about the rights to which creators are entitled, they have also successfully lobbied Congress.2 This has led to an outcry by scholars who believe the broad rights of creators threaten innovation and even freedom.3 Lawrence Lessig describes the † The author is a Faculty Fellow at Duke University School of Law and a 2003 graduate of the University of Chicago Law School.

    BECCARIA, MARCHETTI-STASI PARRELLA, SOMMA (NMI CLUB) NOSCOPYRIGHT A cura del NMI Club: Antonella Beccaria (giornalista) Francesco Marchetti-Stasi (programmatore) Bernardo Parrella (giornalista) Emmanuele Somma (programmatore) Nella programmazione, NMI (Non Maskable Interrupt) indica un evento che inter- rompe l’attività di un microprocessore di fronte a condizioni che hanno priorità su ogni altra attività e che non possono essere ignorate. NMI Club si propone di approfondire alcuni temi caldi dell’attuale panorama tecno- logico, rileggendoli attraverso le inevitabili ricadute socio-culturali ad ampio raggio, con un linguaggio chiaro e diretto per un’informazione alla portata di tutti. Possiamo forse permetterci di ignorare l’attività di NMI Club? Contatti, collaborazioni, proposte: [email protected] Versione elettronica del libro: http://www.nmi-club.org/libri/nosco La versione elettronica del volume viene rilasciata sotto la licenza Creative Commons: Attribution- Commercial-ShareAlike (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/1.0/). Prefazione Questo è un libro sull’informatica, ma non un libro di informati- ca. È un libro rivolto agli appassionati di informatica, che usino Linux, FreeBSD, MacOS, Windows o qualunque altro sistema ope- rativo; è un libro per gli amanti della tecnologia, ma anche per chi è semplicemente affascinato dalle nuove frontiere della comunica- zione. È un libro sulla nascita, la crescita, il destino di un sistema operativo che può fare la differenza, almeno nel settore informati- co, tra il capitalismo selvaggio e lo sviluppo sostenibile. Nello specifico, questo lavoro ripercorre le vicende che hanno por- tato e fanno da sottofondo al caso “SCO contro Linux,” un caso che va scuotendo non solo l’ambito del software libero/open sour- ce ma, appunto, anche l’intero mondo informatico.
