Different spin on HP's move.

Linux is important to HP and HP doesn't want to have GPL loose in court. If a HP customer is sued and looses, HP will suffer. Its better for HP to directly handle the defense.

Its also a message to SCO, sue my customer, deal with my lawyers. Anyone care to doubt the ability of HP's IP legal team? Also, SCO could be facing court cases from IBM and HP at the same time.
