So it's been close to 20 years since SCO brought its original suit, and more than two years since anything even remotely substantive happened on the case. Judges have retired, SCO really doesn't exist any more. The judicial system seems to be content to let slumbering canines lie undisturbed. IBM isn't going to move on this as it's likely to be unprofitable, and SCO (what's left of it) and BSF are just hoping the whole thing has gone away.
Which, it seems, is actually what has happened.
I think at this point all that is going to be said and decided has BEEN said and decided, and that the suit is simply going to remain the echoing, stinking empty room that it's become.
Groklaw and GroktheLaw have been daily "lunch stops" for me since shortly after the suit began, and I've been waiting/watching for the final results since it has (or, had?) potential bearing on my industry. Even though Darl's optimistic LinkedIn description says the case is still in review I'm just not seeing anything new happening.
I think I give up.

There is so much else happening right now. There is much censorship by Google, Twitter, Facebook and endless lies from main stream media.
Numerous mass-mailers are refusing to send email for groups that seek to counter the lies that are being pushed on the US public.
As much as I hate Google, I do want them to win against Oracle so that software interfaces will not be locked up.
I tried to visit the old Groklaw site and if I am not mistaken, it is no longer there. I had planned on slowly siphoning off my old comments from there, but I guess I waited too long.
