No. Incorrect. Do your homework before posting please. Most countries today (U.S.,U.K. etc) do not require a copyright notice at all. If you made it, it's yours.

The various news articles say different things, too.  You need to read them carefully.

Man... who's got the rusty chains? SCO needs a beatin' and a burnin to the ground. I'm going to  shove their dicks into a meat grinder and make them all eat PENIS SAUSAGES.



somehow it seems like a lot of redundant effort to actually mince the penises and then make them into sausages, why not simply cut out the middle man and make them eat penis sausages the way nature intended?

the question -

   
quote:
eWEEK: For its part though, SCO has said that there are so many lines of code, and a variety of applications and devices that use that code, that simply removing the offending code would not be technically feasible or possible and would not solve the problem. Do you agree?  


the response -

   
quote:
Torvalds: They are smoking crack. Their slides said there are [more than] 800,000 lines of SMP code that are "infringing," and they are just off their rocker. The SMP code was written by a number of Linux people I know well (I did a lot of the SMP IRQ scalability myself, personally), so their claims are just ludicrous. And they claim they own JFS [journaled file system technology] too. Whee. They're not shy about claiming ownership of other people's code
