Re: Novell keeps Unix copyrights from Attachmate and Microsoft

The author of that is massively confused. First, the Unix copyrights ARE going to Attachmate, since Novell is not selling the copyrights and Novell is becoming a subsidiary of Attachmate.

Second, the article says Attachmate is selling patents to a Microsoft backed consortium. It is Novell that is selling the patents, before they become a subsidiary of Attachmate.
