I think there is a deeper worry with the SCO case. Is microsoft backing SCO? Who knows. But the problem with open source is you are letting the world know what your source code is. If we looked at the other organisations like Sun, MS, etc, would they have source code and ideas from other companies. Years ago I worked with Oberon and it was radicle. It is strange how a lot of the ideas incorporated in it appears in modern software.
