| Once SCO's business territory got invaded, and they found the alleged theft, they litigated.  It's getting better every minute. Apparently IDG (Infoworld, etc.) got ahold of another code snippet. So here's another piece of Double Secret code that SCO claims to own. Only this time, the original author recognized his own stuff:
Jay Schulist, a senior software engineer with Pleasanton, Calif.'s Bivio Networks says he wrote the 500 lines of code in 1997 as part of a volunteer project for the Stevens Point Area Catholic Schools in Wisconsin. "I used it for helping a local school district in my home town to connect their old Apple Macintosh machines to the Internet," he said.
Schulist wrote the code, based on the publicly available specifications created by Lawrence Berkeley Labs, he said. He has never seen the AT&T source code, he added.
