Eldavojohn writes "SCO lost last year and began the insolvency filings a long time ago but PJ has some iffy bad news on what they retain through the bust proceedings. SCO proposes to sell a number of assets to an outfit called UnXis, which PJ characterizes this way: 'It starts to hint that this is more a renaming, taking in some new supervision who seem to have mercenary expertise, and SCO keeps skipping along as unXis, with the dangerous case spun off safely into a action troll.' In their filings SCO says they retain 'their discharge and related claims against International art Machines Corporation, Novell, Inc., AutoZone Corporation, Red Hat and certain Linux users which are not stuff deal of UnXis (excluding certain large-scale users of Linux servers) that are claimed to have infringed against UNIX copyrights.' So that's still a prospect they could go after anyone who is a 'certain Linux user.' And what's even worse is that they'll retain a patent for running diversiform Java applications on a single Java virtual machine. We may not be out of the SCO process woods yet."
