What happens next in SCO vs. Novell
With that being the case, and there being no chance whatsoever of SCO successfully pursuing a Linux lawsuit, I strongly suspect that the Trustee will drop all of SCO's lawsuits and spend his time on rendering down SCO's remains into pennies on dollars. Rationally, there's nothing left to do, and with a reasonable person now in charge of SCO's remains, that's what I expect to happen.

Any Questions About the SCO Bankruptcy Hearing? I Have a Transcript
The bankruptcy judge partly bought it, as you know, although he blocked the sale to unXis, questioning their good faith, which is of course why IBM and anyone would care about a sale to them, but for us, who have followed the SCO litigation so closely for six years now and saw SCO's malice toward Linux with no evidence on the table the public has ever seen, it's a wonderful laugh. SCO's "potent claims", indeed. What IBM and Novell "have done to SCO". SCO sued them, actually. And Novell prevailed totally against SCO's allegations of slander of title, which was what SCO sued Novell over, a claim which SCO humiliatingly lost. SCO is not appealing that claim. Just read it for yourself. Page 2 of SCO's appeal brief lists the issues on appeal, and SCO's claim of slander of title is not on the list.

SCO vs. Linux: SCO gets Chapter 11 trustee
A Chapter 11 trustee has been commissioned to take over the business affairs of the SCO Group, which is threatened by bankruptcy. The trustee will work to guide the company out of the impending bankruptcy according to Chapter 11 of US bankruptcy code, but can also send the company into liquidation according to Chapter 7 and auction individual company assets to the highest bidder. With this order, the Bankruptcy Court in Delaware has removed SCO's executive board.
