So Novell has won over SCO in court today, with plenty of coverage as expected. But less has changed today than most people think.
SCO's case against IBM is dead, and its case against Novell is dead. Novell's case against SCO has just passed stage one, and still has leeway to sue others.
I'd been asked by someone if this meant that SCO would finally give up in court, or risk opening a pandora's box that would allow Novell to go after more than the $2.5M it was awarded today.
To me the answer seems obvious.
