SCO declares GPL invalid.

M51DPS:
Beavers don't actually eat the trees you know, and SCO is just desperately clawing for any way they can to win the case.

Faust:
Tux can eat whatever he wants.  Me and my team of trainers are teaching the little fella to embrace the warrior spirit, and any second now (once we find a large enough source of uranium) a giant mutated very pissed off penguin is going to go KICK THESE FUCKED UP WANKERS RIGHT IN THEIR GODDAMN HEADS UNTIL THEY DIE AND GO TO PROPRIEATRY HELL!  And then a Gnu is gunna piss on their graves.

hm_murdock:
NEWS FLASH

The Jimmy James has DECLARED THAT SCO IS A GIANT DOGPILE and is therefore IN VIOLATION OF MY COOLRIGHT LAWS. Yes... the fact that everyone suspected all along has been MADE TRUE by the KING OF THE WORLD JIMMY JAMES.

Man... who's got the rusty chains? SCO needs a beatin' and a burnin to the ground. I'm going to  shove their dicks into a meat grinder and make them all eat PENIS SAUSAGES.

it appears SCO contributed code to Linux which they seem to want to copyright.  Can't people get around that somehow by writing new code?

SCO technically already has copyright on any code they wrote.  This is because you automatically have copyright on any work that you create.

However, by distributing their code under the terms of the GPL, they gave anybody who wants it a free and unlimited licnese to use that code in any manner they see fit.

Morons.

You also need to include a copyright notice on your product if you want copyright protection.
