SCO, the US software vendor that has angered most of the open-source community with its claim that its proprietary Unix source code has been illegally copied into the Linux kernel, won't be launching any more lawsuits in the foreseeable future, according to chief executive Darl McBride.
Troubled software maker SCO's chief executive has claimed the Linux operating system includes Unix source code, during a court case in which Novell is suing SCO for royalties on Unix.
Three and a half years after launching a high-profile legal attack on Linux, The SCO Group has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection.
Microsoft appears to be more deeply involved in SCO's legal battles against Linux than previously reported.
The long-running legal battle over claims that IBM's version of Linux violates SCO Group's intellectual property took another twist on Tuesday when IBM sent subpoenas to four other tech players.
Open-source advocate Bruce Perens says SCO will need more than fancy footwork to win its dispute with IBM.

Open Source Risk Management plans on Monday in the US to begin selling Linux users protection against copyright infringement claims such as those levied by the SCO Group.
