SCO's "proof"

SCO's "proof"

[Brandon Stewart]

compliments of "d1rkinator" from yahoo finance message board:

The code SCO finds offending:

www.heise.de/newsticker/data/jk-19.08.03-000/imh0.jpg
www.heise.de/newsticker/data/jk-19.08.03-000/imh1.jpg

Its location in Linux:

/usr/src/linux-2.4.20/arch/ia64/sn/io/ate_utils.c

And its heritage:

minnie.tuhs.org/UnixTree/V7/usr/sys/sys/malloc.c.html

Ok, SCO: This was easy. Now, show us the other many examples.

For those of you who don't speek greek, the greek text is English and reads:

"As part of the kernel evolution towords modular naming, the functions 
malloc and free are being renamed to rmalloc and rfree.
Compatibility will be maintained by the following assembler code:
(also see free/malloc below)"

What a way of obfuscating their IP. :)

Oh! That's wonderful! They own an Alogrithm called "first-fit".
Really!!! Maybe it's the comments thay they claim ownership
of. Certainly the code, supplied by SCI (their (c)), can't be
the offender.

They can't even copy code to a slide:

Nothing new. See this LKML post by Neil Moore and the following thread,
named "Unix code in Linux" from Jun 19:

http://www.ussg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0306.2/1064.html

That code isn't present in 2.5 anymore.

Well it certainly looks as though they copied Linux. At least
they copied the comments okay. It also looks as though the
`evidence` was additionally tampered with because, what is
alleged to be appropriated code will not even compile because
of the tampering.

In the United States Courts, one cannot simply hand-copy some
so-called evidence. This so-called evidence will never make
it to court. If this is being used as evidence, this is prima-
facie evidence of fraud.

Don't do the editing for them. Just let them make their phony
evidence. If this continues, somebody will lose their license
to practice law, and sombody may even end up in jail.

This case is getting more rediculous with each day...lfmao

Oh dear, it seems that our /comments/ are alike.  Hrmm.  Pity the
compiller doesn't take any notice of them, and therefore, I don't see
the evidence that the /code/ has been stolen.  Also, as others have
quite rightfully pointed out, it doesn't even compile -- syntax errors
galore.

Lets hope some people in the legal profession have some C knowledge --
or at least have the sense to go directly to the kernel source on
kernel.org rather than relying on what SCO provides.

As the only case that SCO has filed up to now is against IBM (as far as I know)
you should be aware of the possibility that this proof presented is only a
piece of FUD to distract from the real issues. IBM has never touched this
source, so it is irrelevant to the case.

Since greek characters are easy for me to read here is said conversion since 
people are curious:

As part of the kernel evolution towards modular naming, the
functions malloc and mfree are being renamed to pmalloc and pmfree
Compatibility will be maintained by the following assembler code:
(also see mfree/pmfree below)

The font is not any Greek font. It is the M$ 'Symbol' one. Other fonts would
