Subject: SCOX is the victim here

People should keep in mind that SCO is the victim and the underdog here. Its valuable intellctual property is donated by IBM to Linux.

From the Loon perspective, you received a gift from somebody, but that somebody actually stole it from someone else before "gifting" it to you. You don't go and pick a fight with the victim, no matter however much you may want to hold on the gift. If you do that, you become a thief yourself. 

So, the Loons ought to stay out of this. Let the courts handle it. If a judge rules that certain code should be taken out of Linux, so be it. You can develop something like it again. You cannot act like thugs. Keep your dignity.
