IBM's Greatest Hits: The Summary Judgment Exhibits - Final List
Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 02:21 PM EDT

Here at last is our final text version of the Declaration of Todd M. Shaughnessy with Unsealed or Redacted Exhibits [PDF]. An earlier version appeared here as we worked on it. I call it IBM's Greatest Hits, but it's Groklaw's Magnum Opus too, for sure. And now for the text. sigh. Thank you all for all the corrections, most particularly to feldegast, who was tireless in checking for broken links.

You will notice that Erwan took the time to make the list more visually attractive and thus easier to use, as well as more like the PDF, so I'm giving it its own page. This is the version to link to and bookmark, I'd think, but I'll leave our first version as a memorial to the incredible effort. Thank you, Erwan. This is beautiful.

As you see, he's removed the lines through the sealed exhibits and instead given them a background color so they are simple to spot and move past, but also readable. If by any chance you can't see the color, don't worry. You are then seeing how it looks in the original PDF, so you are only missing an addition visual aid. The judge doesn't need that, because he received this as a DVD, with clickable links. If copyright law worked differently, I'd gladly have done the same for you, but it is what it is.

The only other changes are that with articles in the media, we had already searched for links to locations on the Internet where you can find the articles, and I preserved that here, and in some cases we link to documents already provided on Groklaw instead of linking to the new PDF of the same thing, and we skipped pagination, since the numbering makes it unnecessary and it's extra work. There are likely still fine tuning issues to fix. This was a massive project, and now comes the fun of reading it all and understanding it.

[Update: There is an annotated chart, with links to the motions they support and text versions, where available, here.]

This assumes one allows pages to select colors. I don't as many sites want to
use color combinations I find very hard to read (or just plain irritating).

Item 571 - better copy available
Authored by: tiger99 on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 03:24 PM EDT
Instead of a bitmapped pdf, there are clean copies of every version of this book (Solaris Multithreaded Programming Guide)he re. (Free login may be required) And, it may avoid having to rotate the pdf images, or your head, to read them!

I don't have time to check right now, but that might be true of other Sun books which are referenced.

OK, not exactly the same as IBM's precise selection of pages, but a good read nonetheless if you are into that sort of thing.

FINALLY! 488 Unix Sys. Labs. Inc. v. Berkeley Software Design, Inc.,
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 03:58 PM EDT

There is, an important a series of them like this (a handful from the many really big bombs)....

485 Settlement Agreement between UNIX System Laboratories, Inc. and Sequent, dated November 25, 1992 and bearing Bates numbers 171077842-46

486 Exhibit 3(a) from the May 11, 2004 Deposition of Erik Hughes (Under Seal)

487 Excerpt from book by Peter H. Salus, titled A Quarter Century of UNIX, published in 1994

But, I really like that they put this one in... Finally!

488 Unix Sys. Labs. Inc. v. Berkeley Software Design, Inc., No. 92-1667, 1993 WL 414724 (D.N.J. Mar. 3, 1993)

But, I don't see where the details of the settlement between USL (or Novell) and the Regents is even listed... did IBM in this case miss it (or would there be other reasons for excluding the now publicly available USL vs BSDI settlement terms, AND their importance to the history of a free BSDI and a free UNIX because of both the USL vs BSDI judge's opinion AND the settlement details)?

Also - I don't see where IBM listed the entire details of the case like on the below url... Why didn't IBM include more details related to this important USL vs BSDI case?

Press release under seal?
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 04:05 PM EDT
I have to admit that I didn't read it from the top down. I went to the bottom
and started reading up. 594 is a press release. Why is it under seal? There
are about 15 or 20 other press releases in the list, 247, 347, 348, 355, etc,
not under seal. Can we find it elsewhere?

Legal Procedural Question
Authored by: tredman on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 04:08 PM EDT
Here's a question for those so versed. Just about all of the depositions are
sealed. If the planets align, fire and brimstone fill the skies, dogs and cats
start living in peace together, pigs fly, and the case goes to trial, do those
depositions become unsealed in part or in full if those being deposed are called
as witnesses?

I presume if that doesn't happen, those depositions stay sealed forever,
correct?

Color of sealed items
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 04:42 PM EDT
I like the idea of a different color, but perhaps grey. As it is, I'm finding it
impossible to skip the sealed items, because they are so highlighted in red!

Exhibits 278 and 251
Authored by: dmomara on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 05:07 PM EDT
Some rather devastating implications in the "Caldera after the Santa Cruz
acquisition" section.

Per. Bart Whiteley

"17. .... Mr. Love stated that Caldera would pursue the merging of UNIX
technology and Linux. I recall being present in company meetings where Mr. Love
discussed his plan to use the value of the UNIX-related business that Caldera
purchaced from Santa Cruz in order to improve Linux by making it more reliable,
powerful and 'enterprise hardened'.

18. While employed at Caldera and SCO, I never received training in intellectual
property, including how to protect the rights of Caldera and SCO or how to avoid
infringing intellectual property rights of third parties."

Calvin Gaisford has more to say:

"11. ... I recall being present in company meetings where Mr. Love
discussed his plan to _take_ the value of the UNIX _assets_ that Caldera
purchaced from Santa Cruz and _put it into_ Linux, including _using code from
UNIX to improve Linux by making it more reliable, powerful and 'enterprise
hardened'."


Somehow, one might think that might be something that tSCOG wouldn't want to be
stated before a jury.

Some sealed stuff is available redacted
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 05:17 PM EDT
I noticed

285 Expert Report of Marc J. Rochkind, dated May 19, 2006 (Under Seal)

and remembered having seen portions of it previously.
It turns out although it is filed under seal ...

http://www.groklaw.net/pdf/IBM-669.pdf

A redacted form IS available.

So I suppose it could be made to link to its redacted form.
Doing this for each of the sealed documents for which a
redacted form is available would make this magnum opus,
even more of a magnum.

Some odds and ends
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 06:10 PM EDT
Not everyone can download the PDFs so here is a summay of one of them

Alison Amandia: Lawyer at Novell when Unix was sold

220 pages PDF

20 pages are the declaration and the rest is various supporting exhibits

--

IBM wanted to be able to redistribute source code to some clients &
partners.

IBM's buy out was agreed to be irrevocable

Old SCO wanted the right to levy fees on IBM and IBM customers.

IBM redistribution limited to a max of 50 copies. No further redistribution
allow by IBM customers.

SCO has not rights to terminate anything and were not a party to the IBM
negociations.

This strongly argues in favour of Novell rather than old SCO retaining any
copyrights.

++++++

Please note the wish of old SCO to levy a fee per copy of Unix. Im sure I have
heard that from new SCO in this case.

Some of the language in this case seems to be a echo of earlier negociations. Im
sure some of the same people were involved in both.

Question on the Declaration of ----- items
Authored by: LaurenceTux on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 06:59 PM EDT
Is there some sort of list as to what each one brings to the table?

I know that Brian W Kernighan does a "i ~co-wrote the C "bible"
frequently had lunch with the guys that wrote Unix and hold a patent on
comparing sets of code"
aka the "Last time a guy was more definitive he had stone tablets to back
him up" declaration but what did each of the others do?

note on the whole what about redacted versions thing:
any good corener will tell you that a Vic with a dozen+ through and through
bullet holes in his chest can't get any deader

Appreciation / Suggestion / Request : The Road Ahead
Authored by: sproggit on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 07:18 PM EDT
PJ,

This is - as always - exemplary work. It is no understatement to say that, as a
Community, we stand indebted to you for the tireless hard work you [ and a very
loyal and dedicated collection of helpers ] undertake on our behalf.

I did rather like ... typed with smile much in evidence... your choice of words
when you described this submission from IBM as a "Magnum Opus". I've
been reading your editorials for quite some time now... and it has to be said:
however good Cravath, Swaine and Moore might be at motion practice, you're even
better at achieving clarity and impact.

Thank you.

And so to the punchline. ;o)


It's fairly easy to see that "things are just getting interesting". In
my simple way of looking at things, if this were an eccentric game of chess, the
two legal teams are in the process of putting their various pieces out on the
board, and negotiating over the size and shape of the board. The actual game
itself hasn't really started yet...

Which leads me to the idea/suggestion that it might be a really nice idea if you
would be willing to bring some new postings to Groklaw. In between the
event-driven entries [i.e. those made because there has been activity in the
case] I wondered if yourself, AllParadox and the other experienced legal
commentators might consider drawing us a mental map of what is to come.

Even one article a month through to the conclusion of the case, a piece that
explains what might happen next in sequence of events, what the significance of
the various postings, motions, and events might be.

Separated out - rather than intermixed with the commentary on individual
developments - it might make it easy for those of us who are not experienced in
the law to follow. I've been avidly reading GL since 2003 now - it's became a
part of my life. I try my best to understand the significance of the various
postings and motions - and your commentary is of immense help here.

But still I wonder if a few, brief, dedicated pieces might be an interesting way
of bringing together the remaining chapters of this story.

Just a thought, offered with thanks and respect for all that takes place here.
Perhaps if others have a view for/against they can register that opinion here to
help you judge the merit [or lack] of the idea...

Exhibit 46 - Interference claims - Interrogatory 8
Authored by: sk43 on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 08:05 PM EDT
On p. 4, interference with HP:

"During the LinuxWorld 2003 convention in New York in about January 2003,
Darl McBride, SCO's CEO, discussed with Karen Smith of IBM that SCO intended to
offer a software license to Linux users to allow for legal and authorized us of
SCO's Unix OpenServer shared libraries in a Linux implementation. Ms. Smith
responded by saying that IBM was not pleased with SCO's plan to offer licenses
for OpenServer shared library use in Linux, and that the licensing plan would
kill Linux." Why would this "kill Linux"? SCO seems to be
sliding around something else that Darl may have mentioned, such as a plot to
seek a SCO IP license for Linux ...er ... Unix from Linux users.

On p. 9, regarding Monterey, SCO states that IBM and SCO agreed that "SCO's
products (OpenServer and UnixWare) would serve the volume UNIX-on-Intel
market". Uh, I wasn't aware OpenServer was even mentioned in Monterey.
Further, I thought SCO had tried to put OpenServer into maintenance mode by this
time.

On p. 10 they reintroduce the allegations of copyright infringement for using
SVR4 code in AIX on Power. Wasn't that allegation thrown out by Kimball, saying
SCO knew or should have known about it?

SCO claims copyright on definition of strcpy???
Authored by: Anonymous on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 08:35 PM EDT
I think SCO is claiming ownership of the definition of strcpy in the C library:

Page 92 of CC10 PDF, mentions SCO claims the name strings.h and errno.h as well
as parts of these files contents.

The last 3 lines of the page tell us that SCO claims copyright protection on a
function [definition] of copying characters from a source to a destination.

The only conclusion is that, according to SCO, the function definition for
strcpy, regardless of underlying implementation (and let's be honest, there are
a handful of good implementations possible in C), belongs to them.

IANAL IMHO etc.

Steve Sabbath..what exactly did Novell sell?
Authored by: mram on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 09:01 PM EDT
All along this was the information I was looking for in more detail...the
intentions of Novell and SCO in their deal. That comes out very clearly in this
declaration.

So Novell wanted to retain the "licensing business" and handover only
Unixware to SCO. Obviously the question of copyrights can become very
messy...which is perhaps why Novell wanted to keep maintain status quo regarding
this issue (meaning Novell kept them). When SCO complained about this they said
okay "if you can prove that you really require some copyright to run the
unixware business we will revisit this issue (or we will give you that specific
copyright)"


I can also also understand some of the theory behind the "source
licensing" and "binary licensing" SCOflaws mentioned recently
(when Novell wanted MS / SUn money).

The old Unix licensing was entirely source code. I am not sure if unixware
source was actually licensed....probably only in the binary form in SCO UNIX?

Also lots of other intersting titbits about "irrevocability of IBM's
license"

Interesting to note that TSCOG may not even have half a leg to stand on to sue
IBM regarding Monterey....IBM had to approve transfer of the "joint
development agreement" from old SCO to Caldera --- and IBM explicitly did
NOT approve that.

IBM's Greatest Hits
Authored by: tangomike on Saturday, October 14 2006 @ 11:16 PM EDT
Yes, it's extraordinary. It's also, IMO, clear proof of how much work IBM has
had to pay for to counter TSCOG's obviously baseless and bizarre claims. Now the
court gets to spend really enormous resources on this. Such a waste, really. The
perpetrators cannot go unpunished.

Magnum Opus: first instalment?
Authored by: ile on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 01:40 AM EDT
Impressive, most impressive.

But shouldn't we expect SCO to produce - most likely under
seal, though - a similarly long document with attachments?
I am radically not expecting the _content_ of those
attachments to be even remotely comparable to IBM's
productions'; I do expect the _length_ of SCO's baby to be
similar.

And boy, that will be far worse to prepare for Groklaw:
most of everything will be under seal, there will be
broken links everywhere, the works.

Having read The Lord of the Rings a minimum nine times so
far (and having skipped only Tom Bombadil's part
occasionally), I'd never thought I'd be cheering for the
Nazgûl...

Cool! Great work! Now how long it takes for a judge to proces all this?
Authored by: PolR on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 02:58 AM EDT
When I check the IBM timeline I find the motion (IBM-619) to limit SCO's claims
was filed Feb 13 2006 and the corresponding order order (IBM-718) was issued
June 28. This is a five month gap.

I have lost track on how many motions there are. Isn't there 5 summary jusgement
motions from IBM and a few more from SCOG?

We have seen how massive the documentation related to IBM's motions are. We
haven't seen much of the documentation re SCO's motion yet. We haven't seen the
sealed overlength replies with titles in polynomial notation that are sure to
come.

The poor judge will have to read, understand and bake an appealproof order for
each of these motions while continuing to handle all the other cases in his
docket. Unless he has a brain that can run multiple parallel virtual machines
for multitasking and a corresponding number of hands and keyboards, I don't see
how we can see a complete set of rulings within a year.

Anyone wants to bet the trial date will be pushed back?

Doing a little research
Authored by: DaveJakeman on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 11:33 AM EDT
For those interested in doing a little research, the URL for the Caldera
whitepaper "Linux Standard Base" (exhibit 449) offers a good clue:

http://linux.ittoolbox.com/pub/MM022702d.pdf

Now, let's look at that URL again, alongside the URLs of the Caldera whitepapers
"Linux and UNIX Are Coming Together", "OpenLinux and Open
Source" and "Our Social Contract with the Open Source
Community":

http://linux.ittoolbox.com/pub/MM022702a.pdf

Notice something?

The files MM022702a.pdf through MM022702i.pdf exist in that location and I leave
it to the intrepid reader to discover what they are.

The initial exchanges
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 02:16 PM EDT
I'm looking at the initial exchanges (around the 153, 157 area), where there's the initial letter from McLied to IBM (153) which outlines and enumerates many of IBM's obligations under the AGREEMENTS, and then briefly asserts that IBM has somehow has violated them (it's at the top of page 3, I missed it the first time). When IBM responds asking for clarification (in 156), and basically says "Ok, what exactly is it that IBM has done that you content violate these agreements, which are unrevokable, BTW", TSCOG responds with a letter that highlights the content-free accusations from the previous letter, with a healthy helping of condesionsion for good measure. Then, in 157, McLied goes on the describe the previous accusations as "... exaustive detail" and "[IBM's] wrogdoing detailed in the previous letter".

I mean, how can any take SCO's accusations seriously? They're absurd!

Exhibit 157 - Darl to the Big House?
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 08:23 PM EDT
Exhibit 157 and a few around it contain quotes by Darl from agreements that are
either taken out of context or selectively edited. Given what we know was
happening with Novel, I don't see how Darl can claim he didn't know that The SCO
Group was only an agent and didn't have rights to UNIX. Does this actual rise
to the level of fraud? I specifically mean that it seems to involve intrinsic
fraud, extrinsic fraud, and fraud in the inducement.

A little light reading
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, October 15 2006 @ 11:46 PM EDT
What a waste. How is the judge supposed to make sense of all of this. How can
any human being hold all this in their brain. This is an encyclopedia! Consider
the amount of human effort expertise and scholarship needed to compile this
compendium. What a total and absolute WASTE of precious human time and
talent!!!! Not only does the amount of information and scholarship vastly exceed
what anyone could possibly require to make a decision, but no sane judge could
possibly base a decision on the totality of what is presented because the amount
of information here exceeds the capacity of a single human brain. Surely SCOs
absurd claims could have been dispensed with far more quickly and efficiently
than this. If this is what is required these days to see off a totally baseless
allegation then justice is in a pretty sad state. We've all known for years that
SCO has no case. Yet hundreds - nay thousands - of people continue to pour
themselves and their talents into this fruitless absolutely pointless complete
waste of time and energy and money. I say again - what a WASTE!!!!!

The Linus declaration
Authored by: Anonymous on Monday, October 16 2006 @ 01:49 AM EDT
The one exhibit I was eagerly looking forward to was the declaration of Linus Torvalds. I was surprised it was so brief. He just recounts his role in Linus development and its open-source nature without discussing details, like what sources of information he used. The big surprise comes at end. Looks like he is paying tribute to SCO:

10. Prior to commencing this lawsuit, SCO and its predecessors were heavily involved in Linux development and promotion.

Can you do a seperate article discussing the Ransom Love declaration. From what
I can tell, he raises a number of points that are important for IBM's defense
and summary judgement requests.

I'm dying to see how SCO counters this since a former CEOs statements regarding

Authored by: phaoUNTOtom on Monday, October 16 2006 @ 12:26 PM EDT
The collective amount of work put into this project (by IBM and the groklaw

the PIPE fairy) pause and reflection on how the public detests what is
happening.

Did not many spend much time (anonymously or otherwise) voluntering their

SCO: You can't buy companies with UNIX licenses without our prior consent
Authored by: Anonymous on Monday, October 16 2006 @ 12:57 PM EDT
I have just noticed that in Darl's May letter to Sequent (exhibit 154) he
states:


4. Sequent's disclosure of the SOFTWARE PRODUCT (including methods and concepts)
to IBM, which does not hold a System V Release 4.0 License, is breach of
confidentiality.



Presumably his argument, is based on the fact that IBM had an SVR3 license
originally, and Sequent had a SVR4 license, and IBM (with a lesser license)
bought Sequent (with a newer license).

The implication seems to be that if company X buys company Y - and company Y has
a license to UNIX, but company X has a lesser or no UNIX license, then company Y
is in violation. If this theory were true, this would also put X (because in a
buyout they would be a successor to Y), in violation too.

So, in short, according to the theory in this letter, any company that buys a
UNIX licensee, is in violation of SCO's rights, unless they have an identical
UNIX license to the company that they're buying, or they have SCO's prior
consent to be bought.

I wonder how many of the 30,000 UNIX licensees have been bought or sold since
they 80s... this novel theory [if it were true], would give SCO enormous
economic power.

A Declaration of Love
Authored by: Anonymous on Monday, October 16 2006 @ 04:58 PM EDT
One of the most damning is Ransome Love's. Contray to the fear's of tin foil
hat brigrade it's very very very pro-IBM. This suprises no one who's ever met
him. We questioned his bussiness model, but not that he was a friend of the
Linux community. (Okay RMS, and the EFF really really didn't like him, but that
was 95% due to Caldera's bussiness model.)

He covers Caldera's acceptence of the GPL, their pushing streams, the fact
that the linux community in the end rejected streams, their work to make Linux
more like Unix, buying Santa Cruz to boost linux, the lack of value in SysV,
United Linux....

The best is near the end. Read "SCO's Litigation with IBM" page 25.
He basicly says SCO is completely wrong in every respect. That they knew about
IBM disclosing home grown code, but believed IBM's license permitted. Also that
said disclosure benfited Caldera.

Then he goes on to slam SCO about header files, ELF, and Streams. Saying we
knew, and were active encouraging it.
