Many opinions of the evidence, especially on Groklaw, but also elsewhere,
including here. But none of these people offering opinions have really seen
the evidence, which has been sealed. Mostly people talk about "evidence "
offered by Darl at the start. But NONE of the actual evidence came from
him. It was researched by a team of expert witnesses on both sides, of
which I was one.

I've just checked, and ibiblio has retained the
Groklaw blog, static
now, over the past few years. It was perhaps the best dissection of the
case from a legal point of view:

http://groklawstatic.ibiblio.org/articlesonly.php
though it seems that only the last pages have in fact made it to
ibiblio. You may have to browse the Wayback Machine for the earlier ones.

Oh. As you say, RIP.

Yes. SCO really changed between 2002 and 2003.

Not quite what you're looking for, but at the time I kept quite
a bit
of information at http://www.lemis.com/grog/SCO/
It's a bit of a mess, and a lot of the links have atrophied, but some
of it could be interesting. Potentially the reference to BSD code in
the fossforce article could be related to
