Caldera has a cash flow problem. They're trading at about half of their IPO(?) --- That's an interesting transaction there with SCO. It skirts 'open source' by avoiding ownership of the IP. In effect, Linux companies will be able to have traditional proprietary leverage by keeping everything but their actual brand in the name of (good cop/bad cop) partners and seperate entities: "Oh, well yes it's closed source and non-free because we don't own the product brand. We just sell it and service it by exclusive arrangement. - The closed source decision is out of our hands." --- Linux and shareholders have conflicting agendas (or used to). -JCJ
