Sounds quite interesting - an interactive C/Objective-C IDE. Dynamic, interactive compilation, but with the classic compiler languages. At least for playing around with Objective-C and Cocoa, that would be quite interesting...
I found the original article at VersionTracker.com - Mac OS X.
SCO's claims are becoming increasingly absurd. Now it's supposedly a breach of contract when IBM ports self-developed portions of AIX to Linux, because AIX is a Unix derivative and therefore, according to SCO, everything in it should fall under the Unix confidentiality agreement. Are they completely out of their minds?
Apart from that: where in the SCO garbage heap they call UnixWare have they got anything adequate that would even come close to comparing with the AIX components? For example jfs - where is the usable journaling filesystem in UnixWare that would even allow for any kind of secret violation?
It's really ridiculous what they're pulling off. I hope that - now that it's slowly becoming clear which portions of the source code SCO apparently thinks it has licenses for - the stock market will also react to this and reduce SCO's artificially inflated stock price back to what it's worth: nothing.

It's unbelievable what kind of nonsensical and reality-detached procedures lawyers (and court decisions) are capable of ...
But in Germany, it's not the person who is right that gets the right, but the person who hammers through his plans before the court vehemently enough - no matter how far-fetched and absurd they are. Right goes to whoever shouts the loudest.
And then lawyers wonder why their profession has such a poor reputation outside of it and ranks almost below politicians ...
