Not wanting to start a "religious" argument here, but I gained the
impression, from the little I have read on the matter, that the SCO claims
looked liable to have some merit. As I understand it, they are claiming that
specific code fragments that are clearly their IP are found within the Linux
kernel. This sounds like a readily provable claim in due course (or sooner)
and it seems unlikely (to me) that they would make such claims if they had
no merit whatsoever.

I may well be missing something obvious here and would be happy to have it
explained.
