What Is In System V Release 4.0 Source Code?4.2bsd included the file "syslog.h". Within the file there are lines of code such as: #define LOG_EMERG #define LOG_ALERT #define LOG_ERR #define LOG_WARNING #define LOG_NOTICE You get the idea. The file was an original work of the programmers at UC Berkeley, and it carries a timestamp of May 27, 1983. This file was later merged into System V Release 4.0, along with Xenix and SunOS code. On Dec 19, 2005, SCO alleged to a District Court in Utah that it owned the copyright to this code, and it alleged that Linux had incorporated all the lines of code above in violation of SCO's copyright. The file is Tab 247 in Kevin's Trove and is Disclosure number 223 of the 294 Alleged Violations. The copy of the code in Tab 247 carefully cuts off any University of California copyright notice. syslog.h was listed in the Settlement Agreement, not as a Unix Derived file but rather as a file to which USL was required to affix the University of California coypright notice. Once again, SCO had tried to claim ownership of someone else's source code. |
