The SCO lawsuit has sent a chill through the corporate enterprise computing
world, especially for anyone working with Linux or AIX. What about the
bioinformatics community? Are you following the lawsuit with interest, or
have you already dismissed it? Has your project formed a committee to deal
with the potential implications? Have you started formulating plans for what
to do if a judge issues an order to stop using Linux or AIX? I know that
such a possibility is remote, but one never knows how the legal system will
react to such lawsuits. Any replies would be appreciated. By the way, this
is for a story I'm working on dealing with the subject. Thanks.
