A federal judge overseeing the SCO Group lawsuit against IBM has set a new trial date of February 2007, allowing time for the parties involved to handle preliminary issues such as deposing Big Blue's chief executive, Sam Palmisano.
The SCO Group, which sued IBM over its treatment of the Unix and Linux operating systems, this week accused Big Blue of failing to release required documents.
IBM has dismissed as idle an SCO Group threat to cancel Big Blue's license to ship Unix products starting 13 June, saying that its contracts guarantee rights to the operating system.
The SCO Group confirmed Thursday that three more companies--Computer Associates, Leggett & Platt, and Questar--have purchased licences for its intellectual property, allowing them to run Linux without fear of SCO legal action.
A judge on Wednesday ordered both the SCO Group and IBM to reveal more information in their legal tangle over Linux and Unix, including the code SCO believes infringes on its intellectual property.
