I just saw this:
http://www.catb.org/~esr/nosecrets/
This either Very Smart or Very Dumb, I'm not sure which. I don't know
that it need be discussed to death on this list, either, but I do figure
that the list members will at least be interested in it.

I think the intent is to to demonstrate that they did not value their trade
secrets and did not make an effort to (even just a show of an effort) to defend
them. By showing that tens of thousands of people had access to the UNIX
source that was supposed to be a secret and SCO not going after any of them
(unlike, say, Microsoft's defending Windows source) will weaken their arguments
that these were valuable trade secrets.
