If you want Linux to be clean, then you should support SCO's efforts to make it clean. SCO's only efforts are to take Linux over lock stock and barrel, period.
That would only solve the SCO IP issue. That wouldn't solve the issue of anybody else's IP being in Linux, and even worse it would just be a reverse stealing of all the work that the Linux volunteers have put into Linux for years as a gift, not to SCO, but to the world.

Boo Hoo. They should have realized the obviously illogical license they were designing to before they poured their bleeding hearts into it.

So, in addition to being crack smoking open source sycophants, you're also mind-readers? Get real. IBM doesn't own Linux. SCO's suit against IBM, at worst, would prevent Linux geeks from copying technology.

Stealing other peoples' IP just so you can put it in Linux is not only illegal but immoral. If this has happened, Torvalds and company are going down big-time.
