[Linux-aus] Extent of sco's complaint.

>Copyrighted code is copyrighted code.

Absolutely.

>AT&T didn't allow use of those files; they still required them to be fixed

Absolutely again, and I did not mean to imply that they did not.

However, there is a difference between having the disputed code in "only"
three (or even six) files, and having it distributed throughout the system
in hundreds of files....that is the point I was trying to make.

> System V sources have more UCB copyright notices than AT&T and Bell
> Labs copyright notices :-)

Not surprising at all.
