Trial Witness Lists/Exhibits from SCO v. Novell

By Pamela Jones et al.

The trial witness lists and exhibit lists filed by SCO and Novell at the beginning of the trial in April are available:

05/02/2008 - 535 - Trial Witness List. (kmj) (Entered: 05/08/2008)

05/02/2008 - 536 - Trial Exhibit List of Novell exhibits. (kmj) (Entered: 05/08/2008)

05/02/2008 - 537 - Trial Exhibit List of SCO exhibits. (kmj) (Entered: 05/08/2008)

It's worth going through them with a fine toothed comb, actually, because all of them together make up what the judge based his Order upon, and it's what the appeals court can consider, also, so if you spot anything that contradicts any factual conclusions, it's of interest. As you'll notice, the judge got to see more than we did, so if you find something online that matches the exhibit, it might be good to mention it. If any heroic soul can OCR it to get a text version ready, that would be wonderful.

I can't believe that we have to think about UnixWare and OpenServer again, but we do. So it's a good idea, if you spot anything of value, to keep a copy of the original, so it will be possible to prove things down the road. SCO doesn't allow Wayback to keep a record of its site, so that workaround doesn't work. That leaves you and me. If someday SCO sues someone over UnixWare or Open Server, we'll be glad we did the squirrel work. I have my first contribution to that effort.
