Frankenberg's deposition is convincing but it isn't clear why, if what he said is true, the APA plainly and explicitly excludes all copyrights if this was never anyone's intent (yes I know about the amendments).

Also copyright law is completely unambiguous about what is required to transfer copyrights, and is unlike contract law where intent may matter. You've got to have a document saying with specificity which copyrights are transferred.

As for O'Gara's testimony, the operative word there is "conveyed". The quoted words are O'Gara's imputations, they are not even hearsay. O'Gara is not suggesting that Stone said those things, she is only saying this is what she thought he meant.

I don't think there's anything illegal about issuing a press release about an ongoing issue with another company that might have a negative impact on that company, however you choose to time it. Unless you think the information was plainly false and fraudulent. Novell didn't stand to benefit from any purported manipulation of SCOX's stock price.
