I know this could be a tricky legal minefield, so if possible could SCO draft a letter (and run it past their lawyers) which sets out exactly what you said above. In particular, you said that ``SCO would cheerfully encourage them to run UNIX on these antiques without any payment to us''. Does this mean I can legally distribute the source code to the PDP versions of UNIX, and to anybody? or just to people who own PDP-11s. There are PDP-11 emulators available, so it is conceivable that people who don't even have a real PDP-11 might like to try UNIX out on these emulators. If to anybody, then I assume this means the source is legally owned by SCO but freely distributable? I really appreciate your offer of making these old versions of UNIX available, but given the legal status of the code to this point, I would like to cover myself with an officially blessed and signed document from SCO. Let me know what you can do, and many many thanks again for this!

They said there is no problem in similar licensees exchanging software among themselves. In other words, your friend who resurrected the PDP-11 can be considered a licensee since his machine did once have a UNIX license, and if he agrees to the same terms as your license states. And if he is therefore also a licensee, you can provide him with copies of the software. They are not willing to write a letter because they are busy writing up real revenue deals. I recommend you go ahead and provide the necessary UNIX code to your university colleagues who have restored PDP-11s, as needed, with the understanding that they are licensees also, as deduced by the above rationalization. I hope this works well enough. -Dion From: Warren Toomey Subject: Re: Prehistoric UNIX licenses To: Dion Date: Fri, 28 Jun 1996 09:34:11 +1000 (EST) Cc: Warren Toomey In atricle by Dion: > If you want it to be an official letter, it's a whole different ballgame. > I will see what I can find out, but it will take a while.

Hmm, it's the people who have never had a license that are the problem. I've got, say, six people who have saved PDP-11s from the dump, and they would rather run UNIX on them than RT-11. Is there some way that SCO can give them the right to use UNIX? Even a cheap ($100?) single-user license would probably be good enough, but I guess that's more paperwork for you guys. The people who do have licenses (or work for departments with licenses) don't have any problems. They've been exchanging software for years now, as you pointed out. We need a solution that's little or no work for SCO, reasonably cheap for the people currently without licenses, and legally above board. I know that Peter Salus and John Lions are negotiating for the right to publish Lions' commentary on Sixth Edition Unix. Perhaps the SCO folk looking at that problem might be persuaded to consider this problem too, as they are fairly similar. Anyway, I appreciate your help for a situation which isn't going to earn SCO anything, and I'm sure you've got other things to look after. But if you could keep the pot boiling at your end, that would be great. I suspect SCO will get kudos from the Unix community for allowing Lions' book to be published, and would earn similar kudos if they made these antique UNIX versions available too.

Finally, Mike Tilson said that you were doing a great job at representing the interests of the PDP-11 enthusiasts. Many thanks for all your efforts!

Thanks for the email Dion, I guess a binary-only license would be better than nothing. However, I had an idea last night. I assume SCO sells source licenses for SysVR4.2 (or whatever the current version is). SCO must believe that the license protects their intellectual property in SysVR4.2. That's right; we do. Take that license & replace `SysVR4.2 UNIX' with `5th, 6th & 7th Edition UNIX'. Now, does this modified source license protect SCO's intellectual property which is in 5th, 6th & 7th Edition UNIX? If so, then would SCO agree to sell this source license? Certainly. I assume that the price tag is not written into the SysVR4.2 source license, and so changing the cost of a `5th, 6th & 7th Edition UNIX' source license would not be too much of a problem. Right again. Can you let me know if there are any problems with this approach? We are willing to sell you a source license, provided we make enough money to cover the cost of writing up a license agreement, getting signatures, etc. Probably costs us a few hundred dollars of legal and processing time. Or maybe we would just consider that a donation to the good of the UNIX culture. But the issue is that this license does not give you the right to provide that source code to anyone else, which is what you want to do. In other words, you are not licensed to SUBLICENSE the source. Now you could argue that we could and should provide this source license directly to your various friends who want to get the source code. OK, we might be able to do this (if volume were not excessive) but there would have to be a license for each one, which (as I recall) violated your desire to be able to supply the source code easily and directly from your site.

Does this help? > -Dion Dion, thanks very much for your email, in fact I'm ecstatic! I know this could be a tricky legal minefield, so if possible could SCO draft a letter (and run it past their lawyers) which sets out exactly what you said above. In particular, you said that ``SCO would cheerfully encourage them to run UNIX on these antiques without any payment to us''. Does this mean I can legally distribute the source code to the PDP versions of UNIX, and to anybody? or just to people who own PDP-11s. There are PDP-11 emulators available, so it is conceivable that people who don't even have a real PDP-11 might like to try UNIX out on these emulators. If to anybody, then I assume this means the source is legally owned by SCO but freely distributable? I really appreciate your offer of making these old versions of UNIX available, but given the legal status of the code to this point, I would like to cover myself with an officially blessed and signed document from SCO. Let me know what you can do, and many many thanks again for this!

No, I don't want to provide it to anyone else, I just want anyone else to be able to get it. Being able to obtain a source license from SCO would be a perfect solution. Believe me, if SCO made source licenses available, I'd be a completely happy person :-) Would SCO make a non-redistributable PDP-11 Unix source license available? Thanks!

As I explained in earlier e-mail, I think there are a number of issues that would require considerably more thought than the effort that went into releasing the Lions book, as this deals with a core of UNIX that is still of value even today (I guess the original authors did a pretty good job!) It would be our product development people who would make such a call. Dion would be the best person to locate the "right party". Given the stress our PD organization is under as we ramp up to our Gemini release (and this includes stress in the legal and contract negotiating staff as well) I would have to caution that this has a small probability of happening any time soon. The issue isn't that people are willing to pay a handling/licensing fee, but rather just the attention needed to do this right (without risk to our core business of UNIX systems) versus the other demands on people's time. I'm not saying this to dampen your enthusiasm, I'd just hate to see those 50 people feeling disappointed because their expectations weren't set properly. As I said, it would be nice for this to happen in some way, and when and if the right people in the development organization become engaged, I'd be happy to provide advice to them. > From sco.sco.com!dolphin-20.cs.adfa.oz.au!cs.adfa.oz.au!wkt Sun Nov 24 17:33:37 1996 > From: Warren Toomey > Message-Id: <9611250123.AA08724@dolphin> > Subject: Survey Results on PDP-11 Unix License > To: mike@sco.com, dionj@sco.com > Date: Mon, 25 Nov 1996 12:23:34 +1100 (EST) > X-Mailer: ELM [version 2.4 PL24 ME8a] > Mime-Version: 1.0 > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit > Mike, Dion, > I hope you don't mind me bothering you again.

We can provide it under a suitable license because the license agreement can embody the necessary protections. In other words, we are happy for you guys to have this source code (possibly with some nominal payment that helps cover our costs) but we dont want to lose any legal control of the "secrets". It may be that we (SCO) still have obligations inherited from other, ancient contracts with various technology suppliers about such matters, etc. Looking at your proposed license terms (strictly an amateur review; I am not a lawyer :-) I think they seem very fair and plausible.

I can tell you I've had a lot of good feedback about SCO regarding their support for the Lions' Commentary and their free PDP-11 UNIX binary license. If we can reach an agreement on the source licenses, then if SCO staged an announcement about them at a USENIX conference, for example, it would be terrific PR. I don't know what you guys feel about pricing. $200 would be max, I think, for individuals to want to pay. $100 would be better :-) Also, if the license idea gets done, we'd need to come up with a source code distribution mechanism which is also acceptable. I don't think SCO would want to bother with it, which is why I mentioned it in the petition. If a 3rd party was given the distribution task (say me, for example), a way of proving that someone has purchased the license would be required. We can come up with the gory details later. Anyway, less talk from me. I'll let the petition run for a few weeks & then pass it on to you guys. Thanks again!

Many thanks for your help & support, Warren Toomey wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. Dear Sirs/Madams, We, the undersigned, are a group of people who are interested in obtaining legal access to the source code and binaries of the versions of UNIX that ran on the PDP-11 range of computers from Digital Equipment Corporation. We would like legal access to these versions of UNIX to be available because: * they are of great historical importance, and/or * we personally own PDP-11 computers on which these systems will run. The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc. owns the copyright to these very old versions of UNIX. We understand and appreciate that SCO wishes to protect their intellectual property within, and ownership of, these versions of UNIX. Therefore, we wish to petition SCO to make available source code and binary licenses of these versions of UNIX so that: * we can legally own source code and binaries for PDP-11 UNIXes, and * SCO's copyright and intellectual property is protected. We would be happy to purchase and be legally bound by a source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes that meets SCO's requirements, as long as: * the license covers the entire distributions (source code, binaries and documentation) of the following versions of UNIX: o 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Edition UNIX o 32V UNIX o PWB/UNIX o those portions of all 2BSD releases which are derived from UNIX source code * we have the right to make changes to the source code of the above versions of UNIX * we have the right to distribute our changes to other people who have signed and agreed to the source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes * we have the right to install UNIX binaries on PDP-11 hardware and PDP-11 emulating software * we have the right to allow other people to use the UNIX binaries on such an installation Note that the latter is already permitted, given SCO's binary license agreement for 5th, 6th and 7th Edition UNIX. We would also be happy with the following conditions imposed in the source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes: * no resale of the license is permitted * source code covered by the license cannot be distributed or disclosed to people not covered by the license * no commercial usage of the source code or binaries is permitted * SCO is not required to provide copies of any source code, binaries or documentation with the source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes On a recent survey of people interested in such a license, over 120 people responded. Most of the respondents would agree to a license with the conditions and limitations outlined above, if the cost of such a license was less than US$200. We urge you to consider * the historical significance of the UNIX operating system, * that the PDP-11 versions of UNIX are essentially obsolete, * that UNIX-like operating systems, libraries and applications are freely available in source code form, * that the source code to 6th Edition UNIX is publicly available in printed form (Lions' Commentary on 6th Edition UNIX, Peer to Peer Communications, Inc.) and make personal-use non-disclosure source code and binaries licenses for PDP-11 UNIXes available at a price which we can afford as individuals. The UNIX community has played an extremely important role in the development and success of the UNIX operating system. The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc., as owners of the UNIX operating system source, would be repaying the UNIX community in some measure by providing source licenses for these old versions of UNIX. Although you would not profit greatly from the licenses, you would earn the respect and appreciation from many people who helped make UNIX what it is today. Thank you for your time. Your response to our petition will be appreciated, and can be sent via Internet e-mail to Warren Toomey wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au. Sincerely yours, the undersigned. John S.

We're covered by institutional source licenses at the moment. You're welcome to the stuff of course, you own it. However, I thought you guys didn't want to be bothered with the distribution bit. That's why I put the clause in the petition: SCO is not required to provide copies of any source code, binaries or documentation with the source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes. I'd be happy to act as distributor, but I'd need a mechanism so I can prove that someone really has a license from SCO. Anyway, the archive is sitting on my desktop box here, with no public access of any kind. I have another box for all of that. Here's an ftp login for you to look around: ftp henry.cs.adfa.oz.au user sco passwd srclicense1 Finally, thanks again for your help!

I think we can have a license > pretty soon. Our most eminent legal eagle is on the case. Ok Dion. On the petition status web page, all I've mentioned is that I've seen a non-legal draft version which gives us basically what we asked for in the petition. After re-reading the draft carefully, I did have a few more suggestions. You can probably pass the next section directly to your legal eagle, and pass on our appreciation for his/her work. Thoughts on the Draft License ----------------------------- It essentially looks good, but I have a few quibbles. Obviously SCO wants to protect the source code. The binaries are already covered to some extent with the binary license SCO released earlier this year. The status of the documentation (man pages, other papers) seems a bit unclear, so it would be good if this is made more explicit. We want to be able to install full distributions (src, docs, binaries), but the draft only mentions installing UNIX binaries. Some organisations have existing UNIX licenses from Western Electric or AT&T. I think that these existing licenses need to be mentioned in the new license. Below is a rewording of the draft send to me by Dion Johnson, with proposed changes to accomodate the above quibbles. The changes are marked in => <=. I'd appreciate it if you would give them some consideration. + the license covers the entire distributions (source code, binaries and documentation) of the following versions of UNIX: o 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th and 7th Edition UNIX o 32V UNIX o PWB/UNIX o those portions of all 2BSD releases which are derived from UNIX source code + licensees have these rights wrt the => distributions <= of the above versions of UNIX: Use, store, reproduce, edit, adapt, enhance, improve, otherwise modify, transmit electronically, and repackage. + These rights are licensed to noncommercial users. The source may not be sold nor used to develop commercial versions of UNIX. + licensees have the right to install UNIX => distributions <= on PDP-11 hardware and PDP-11 emulating software. + licensees have the right to allow noncommercial use of the UNIX binaries => and documentation <= on systems for which the product is licensed. + license is not transferable. + source code covered by the license cannot be distributed or disclosed to people not covered by the license, => or by existing UNIX software licenses from Western Electric or AT&T <=. The licensees are permitted to collaborate on modifications and mutually share their modifications. + SCO is not required to provide copies of any source code, binaries or documentation with the source code and binary license for PDP-11 UNIXes + License Fee: SCO charges a one-time license fee of $100 per licensee, for a site license for one organization. [ I'm unclear on this point, it seems there's a word missing: $100 per licensee, OR for a site license for one organization. Is this correct? ] + We may, at some future time, provide source distributions (if/when we can find the sources), but this is not committed. We know that the licensees have, between them, most of the needed sources. ----------------------------- > Finally, the problem of src/binary distribution. > > Our problem is that, apparently, no one is left around here who knows > where these ancient sources ARE.

I think we've got as much as there is left. There's nothing before 5th Edition, except for some material on paper which Dennis Ritchie owns. I am prepared to perform some of the distribution, e.g by burning CDs and by having an FTP site. I don't want to be sued in the process! So I really need a way of verifying who actually does have a SCO license. You guys must attach serial numbers to each license. Can you email me name/serial number pairs? This would help me to authenticate people. But as I said before, the distribution problem is something that we can address after the license wording is completed and they go on sale.

There's no Sys III or later code at all in 2BSD. The split in the family tree came quite a bit earlier, so while there is V7 code present in 2BSD the newer additions to 2BSD have borrowed from the "unencumbered" 4BSD and similar efforts. > In terms or licensing, we are in a situation similar to the 4.4BSD-Lite > situation.

I'll try and answer everything to the best of my ability. [ email from SCO's legal guy, lines with * are Dion's reply ] Dion, The License has been written but we need some clarification on the product the license will cover. In your original emails you stated that they wanted a license to cover the old OS that ran on the PDP-11. This is a 16-Bit machine. Old UNIX that ran on the 16-Bit was the UNIX Editions 1 - 7. Not just UNIX Research Editions 1 to 7 ran on PDP-11s. I think 8th Edition did as well. Also, there were several variants derived from the Research Editions, such as PWB (several flavours), MERT, Mini UNIX and AUSAM. There was even a version of System V for the PDP-11. I don't know if there was a System III which ran on PDP-11s. We would really like coverage of ALL PDP-11 UNIX variants, but even coming up with a list would be difficult. I think SCO would be touchy about selling source code to System V, even if it was only for the PDP-11. I think we would be happy to forego the System III and System V versions. Summary: We would like a license to cover all PDP-11 UNIXes (and derived works such as AUSAM and Mini UNIX) except the System III and System V versions. I don't know if SCO can come up with legalese which would cover such a general list, so the specific list we outlined in the petition would be fine. If I left out PWB, MERT, Mini UNIX and AUSAM, then would you add them to the list?! 32V UNIX ran on a 32-Bit machine not the PDP-11, 32V ran on the Vax. Ok, technically this was not a PDP-11, but the 32V version of UNIX was essentially a straight port of 7th Edition over to the Vax, with no additions (no virtual memory, no nothing). It's a very historically important version of UNIX, and we would like to have it included. Note importantly that the draft license so far will not permit us to install 32V on a Vax, so we can only view the source and documentation, not actually run the software. We would be prepared to lose this version, if it became a sticking point, but it would still be nice to have it available for reading. Remember, we want the license to cover not only PDP-11 owners, but people who have a historical interest in UNIX. You'd be surprised how popular the `John Lions Commentary on 6th Edition UNIX' is, even though few people own PDP-11s now. your "2BSD release" is this the Berkely versions of UNIX? - if it is, it could go up to our SVR4.0 and we do not want to included this in our license. I don't know if you have seen a diagram of the UNIX genealogy. Grab hold of `Life with UNIX', or go to http://minnie.cs.adfa.oz.au/PUPS/node1.html, and view the diagram there. You will see that 1BSD and 2BSD are derived from 6th & 7th Edition UNIX. 3BSD was a split from the 2BSD branch, and then became 4BSD. So: 6th | V 1BSD | V 2BSD ---> 3BSD ---> 4BSD | | V V 2BSD and subsequent versions run only on the PDP-11. Yes, later versions such as 2.11BSD have taken some code from the 4.3BSD and 4.4BSD versions. In terms or licensing, we are in a situation similar to the 4.4BSD-Lite situation. The perception was that certain parts of 4.4 were derived `enough' from old UNIX, and so were left out. With 2BSD and its derivatives, we happily assert that there IS stuff left over from 6th and 7th Edition. I am sure there is nothing taken from 32V or from later versions of UNIX. All we want is the license to cover anything still in 2BSD which is _derived_ from the early versions of UNIX. If you want to limit the versions from which code can be derived, then 7th Edition or 32V would be suitable. I'm not the current maintainer of 2BSD; Steven Schultz is, and he is available by email at sms@moe.2bsd.com. I will pass this email on to Steven, as he is really the person who should be negotiating with SCO over 2BSD. Please read my comments with a grain of salt, and treat all comments from Steven as overriding my comments!

I think it's a mind set thing: accessible source code vs. non-accessible source code, or ``Use the source, Luke''. UNIX was brought up in this mind set. Sun's playing on this with their release of source code to academic institutions -- they're gaining kudos, not money. They're buying reputation. Anyway, I could go on & on with comments. You know how I feel. SCO gains kudos, reputation and goodwill out of this. Sure you can't put a $ value on it, but I hope it will strengthen the market perception of SCO as a willing and helpful part of the UNIX community. Please pass my comments on to the legal eagle & to the others involved in SCO. P.S Can you get people to call me Warren & not Toomey :-) I'm a 1st name guy.

I'll try and answer everything to the best of my ability. [ email from SCO's legal guy, lines with * are Dion's reply ] Dion, The License has been written but we need some clarification on the product the license will cover.

SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT A. THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC., a California corporation (SCO), having an office at 400 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 and LICENSEE, as defined in the signature block of this Agreement agree that, as of the Effective Date hereof, as defined in Section 7.1, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall apply to use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. B. SCO makes certain licensing rights for SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS available under this Agreement, including rights to make and use DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS. Such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is identified in Section 3 of this Agreement . C. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter hereof and merge all prior discussions between them, and neither of the parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, warranties, understandings or representations with respect to such subject matter other than as expressly provided herein or as duly set forth on or subsequent to the date of acceptance hereof in writing and signed by a proper and duly authorized representative of the party to be bound thereby. No provision appearing on any form originated by LICENSEE shall be applicable unless such provision is expressly accepted in writing by an authorized representative of SCO. F. The AUTHORIZED COUNTRY for this Agreement shall be ______________________. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives. LICENSEE: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. __________________________________ By:_________________________________ (Name) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Title) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Date) __________________________________ (By) __________________________________ (Print or Type Name __________________________________ (Title) I. DEFINITIONS 1.1 AUTHORIZED COUNTRY means the country specified on page 1 of this Agreement. 1.2 CPU means a computer having one or more processing units and a single global memory space. 1.3 COMPUTER PROGRAM means any instruction or instructions for controlling the operation of a CPU. 1.4 DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT means COMPUTER PROGRAMS in OBJECT CODE format based on a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.5 DESIGNATED CPU means any CPU licensed as such for a specific SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.6 OBJECT CODE means a COMPUTER PROGRAM in binary form, resulting from the compilation of SOURCE CODE by computer or compiler into machine executable code and which is in a form of computer programs not convenient to human understanding of the program logic, but which is appropriate for execution or interpretation by computer. 1.7 SOURCE CODE means COMPUTER PROGRAMS written in certain programming languages in electronic media form and in a form convenient for reading and review by a trained individual, such as a printed or written listing of programs, containing specific algorithms, instructions, plans, routines and the like, for controlling the operation of a computer system, but which is not in a form that would be suitable for execution directly on computer hardware. 1.8 SOURCE CODE PRODUCT means a SCO software offering, primarily in SOURCE CODE form. Such offering may also include OBJECT CODE components. 1.9 SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEM means a SCO software offering that is (i) specifically designed for a 16-Bit computer and (ii) specifically excludes UNIX System V and successor operating systems. 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS 2.1 (a) SCO grants to LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to use, in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY, each SOURCE CODE PRODUCT identified in Section 3 of this Agreement, solely for personal use (as restricted in Section 2.1(b)) and solely on or in conjunction with one (1) DESIGNATED CPU for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. Such right to use includes the right to modify such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT and to prepare DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT based on such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, provided that any such modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that contains any part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement is treated hereunder the same as such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. SCO claims no ownership interest in any portion of such a modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is not part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. (b) Personal use is limited to noncommercial uses. Any such use made in connection with the development of enhancements or modifications to SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS is permitted only if (i) neither the results of such use nor any enhancement or modification so developed is intended primarily for the benefit of a third party and (ii) any copy of any such result, enhancement or modification, furnished by LICENSEE to a third party holder of an equivalent Software License with SCO where permitted by Section 8.4(b) below, is furnished for no more than the cost of reproduction and shipping. Any such copy that includes any portion of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be subject to the provisions of such Section 8.4. (c) LICENSEE may produce printed and on-line copies of documentation included with the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT as necessary for use with the DESIGNATED CPU. All copies must include a legally sufficient copyright notice and a statement that the documents include a portion or all of SCO's copyrighted documentation, which is being reproduced with permission. (d) Commercial use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS or of any result, enhancement or modification associated with the use of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS under this Agreement is not permitted. Such commercial use is permissible only pursuant to the terms of an appropriate commercial software agreement between SCO or a corporate affiliate thereof and LICENSEE. For purposes of this Agreement, "commercial use" includes, but is not limited to, furnishing copies to third parties in a manner not permitted by Section 8.4(b). (e) SCO also grants LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to make copies of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS and, subject to U. S. Government export requirements and to Section 8.4(b), to furnish such copies directly to other LICENSEES who have an equivalent Software License with SCO before or at the time of furnishing each copy of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT. 2.2 (a) Any notice acknowledging a contribution of a third party appearing in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be included in corresponding portions of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS made by LICENSEE. (b) Each portion of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT shall include an appropriate copyright notice. Such copyright notice may be the copyright notice or notices appearing in or on the corresponding portions of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT on which such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is based or, if copyrightable changes are made in developing such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT, a copyright notice identifying the owner of such changes. 2.3 No right is granted hereunder to use any trademark of SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). However, LICENSEE must state in packaging, labeling or other wise that a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is derived from SCO's software under license from SCO and identify such software (including any trademark, provided the proprietor of the trademark is appropriately identified). LICENSEE agrees not to use a name or trademark for a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is confusingly similar to a name or trademark used by SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). 2.4 A single back-up CPU may be used as a substitute for the DESIGNATED CPU without notice to SCO during any time when such DESIGNATED CPU is inoperative because it is malfunctioning or undergoing repair, maintenance or other modification. 3. LICENSED SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS The SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS to which SCO grants rights under this Agreement are restricted to the following UNIX Operating Systems, including SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEMs, that were designed to operate on the 16-Bit PDP-11 CPU: UNIX Edition 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 4. DELIVERY SCO makes no guarantees or commitments that any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is available from SCO. If available, SCO will, within a reasonable time after SCO receives the fee specified in this Agreement for a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, furnish to LICENSEE one (1) copy of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 5. EXPORT 5.1 LICENSEE agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of SCO, export, directly or indirectly, SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS covered by this Agreement to any country outside of the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY. 5.2 LICENSEE hereby assures SCO that it does not intend to and will not knowingly, without the prior written consent, if required, of the Office of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230, transmit, directly or indirectly: (i) any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement; or (ii) any immediate product (including processes) produced directly by the use of any such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT; to Afghanistan, the People's Republic of China or any Group Q, S, W, Y or Z country specified in Supplement No. 1 to Section 370 of the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. 5.3 LICENSEE agrees that its obligations under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 6. FEES AND TAXES 6.1 In consideration for the rights granted to LICENSEE for use of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS identified in Section 3 above, LICENSEE shall pay to SCO a Right-to-Use Fee of US$100.00 for the DESIGNATED CPU at the time this Agreement is returned to SCO for final execution. 6.2 Payment to SCO shall be made in United States dollars to SCO at the address specified in Section 8.8(a). 6.3 LICENSEE shall pay all taxes (and any related interest or penalty), however designated, imposed as a result of the existence or operation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any tax which LICENSEE is required to withhold or deduct from payment to SCO, except (i) any tax imposed upon SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof) in the jurisdiction in which the aforesaid office of LICENSEE is located if such tax is allowable as a credit against United States income taxes of SCO (or such an affiliate) and (ii) any income tax imposed upon SCO (or such an affiliate) by the United States or any governmental entity within the United States proper (the fifty (50) states and the District of Columbia). To assist in obtaining the credit identified in (i) of this Section 5.05, LICENSEE shall furnish SCO with such evidence as may be required by United States taxing authorities to establish that any such tax has been paid. The Fee specified in Section 6.1 above do not include taxes. If SCO is required to collect a tax to be paid by LICENSEE, LICENSEE shall pay such tax to SCO on demand. 7. TERM 7.1 This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the date of acceptance by SCO. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for one (1) year. Thereafter, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms unless either party gives the other, no later than ninety (90) days before the end of the initial term, or then current extension, written notice of its intent to terminate this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require either party to extend this Agreement beyond the initial term or any subsequent term. 7.2 LICENSEE may terminate its rights under this Agreement by written notice to SCO certifying that LICENSEE has discontinued use of and returned or destroyed, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. 7.3 If LICENSEE fails to fulfill one or more of its obligations under this Agreement, SCO may, upon its election and in addition to any other remedies it might have, at any time terminate all the rights granted by it hereunder by not less than two (2) months' written notice to LICENSEE specifying any such breach, unless within the period of such notice all breaches specified therein shall have been remedied; upon such termination LICENSEE shall immediately discontinue use of and return or destroy, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in its possession. 7.4 In the event of termination of LICENSEE's rights under Sections 7.2 or 7.3, (i) all fees that LICENSEE has become obligated to pay shall become immediately due and payable and (ii) SCO shall have no obligation to refund any amounts paid to it hereunder. 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 8.1 This Agreement shall prevail notwithstanding any conflicting terms or legends which may appear in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.2 If, and only if, SCO is the entity that provides SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE, SCO warrants for a period of ninety (90) days from furnishing a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE hereunder, that any magnetic medium on which portions of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT are furnished will be free under normal use from defects in materials, workmanship or recording. If such a defect appears within such warranty period LICENSEE may return the defective medium for replacement without charge. Replacement is LICENSEE's sole remedy with respect to such a defect. SCO also warrants that it is empowered to grant the rights granted herein. SCO and other developers make no other representations or warranties, expressly or impliedly. By way of example but not of limitation, SCO and other developers make no representations or warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, or that the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT will not infringe any patent, copyright or trademark. SCO and other developers shall not be held to any liability with respect to any claim by LICENSEE, or a third party on account of, or arising from, the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.3 Neither the execution of this Agreement nor anything in any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be construed as an obligation upon SCO or any other developer to furnish any person, including LICENSEE, any assistance of any kind whatsoever, or any information or documentation. 8.4 (a) LICENSEE agrees that it shall hold all parts of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement in confidence for SCO. LICENSEE further agrees that should it make such disclosure of any or all of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS (including methods or concepts utilized therein) to anyone to whom such disclosure is necessary to the use for which rights are granted hereunder, LICENSEE shall appropriately notify each such person to whom any such disclosure is made that such disclosure is made in confidence and shall be kept in confidence and have each such person sign a confidentiality agreement containing restrictions on disclosure substantially similar to those set forth herein. If LICENSEE should become aware of a violation of SCO's intellectual property and/or proprietary rights, LICENSEE shall promptly notify SCO and cooperate with SCO in such enforcement. If information relating to a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement at any time becomes available without restriction to the general public by acts not attributable to LICENSEE, LICENSEE's obligations under this section shall not apply to such information after such time. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a), LICENSEE may make available copies of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, either in modified or unmodified form, to third parties in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY having Source Code Licenses of the same scope herewith from SCO for the same SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, if and only if (i) LICENSEE first requests verification the status of the recipient by contacting SCO at the address contained in Section 8.8(b) or other number specified by SCO, and (ii) SCO gives written verification of the recipient's software license status. LICENSEE shall maintain a record of each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT made available. 8.5 (a) On SCO's request, but not more frequently than annually, LICENSEE shall furnish to SCO a statement, listing the location, type and serial number of the DESIGNATED CPU hereunder and stating that the use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement has been reviewed and that each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU (or temporarily on a back-up CPU) for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in full compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.

Thank you very much. (I agree with Warren - your signature block is nifty!) As you mentioned there are a couple "problems". Warren has addressed the "Single Country" aspect. My concern and questions deal with, for the most part, the "DESIGNATED CPU" concept. Is it SCO's intent to license "the person" or "the specific system"? 2.1(a) starts off sounding like a "per person" license: > 2.1 (a) SCO grants to LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and > nonexclusive right to use, in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY, each SOURCE > CODE PRODUCT identified in Section 3 of this Agreement, solely > for personal use (as restricted in Section 2.1(b)) and solely on So far so good. Personally I find the idea of a "personal license" more attractive and easier to deal with (for both sides) than a "per cpu/system" one. But then the paragraph continues on: > or in conjunction with one (1) DESIGNATED CPU for such SOURCE > CODE PRODUCT. Such right to use includes the right to modify Hmmm, the "DESIGNATED CPU" would indicate that the "system" rather than the hobbyist is being licensed. 2.1(b) goes back to the "Personal use" theme: > (b) Personal use is limited to noncommercial uses. Any such use > made in connection with the development of enhancements or There are numerous other cases that seem to alternate between "personal" and "system". The beneficiaries of an inexpensive source license for "old" UNIX are the hobbyists (Dion - if you do get a PDP-11/73 and need some help setting it up let me know). It is not uncommon for a 'collector' to have two or more machines that have been "rescued" from the landfill (or whatever). Would it be possible to change the language to be more along the lines (and I'm not a lawyer as you can probably tell;-)) of "systems belonging to the licensed individual"? I can see where SCO would not appreciate my taking my license over to a friend's house and installing a system. But I do have two systems in my house, an 11/73 and an 11/93 (I'd get a 11/44 but it'd eat me alive on electricity). > 2.2 (a) Any notice acknowledging a contribution of a third party > appearing in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be included in > corresponding portions of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS made by > LICENSEE... > (b) Each portion of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT shall include an > appropriate copyright notice.

That's going to cut into the money's generated by the (very modest) license fee, isn't it?

There is no concept of a "serial number" in many cases. I put (in one case paid someone else to) the system together out of parts - a BA23 box from here, a M8192 (that's the 11/73 CPU module) from elsewhere, a DEQNA from a used equipment place, and so on. The larger systems (11/70, perhaps the 11/44) had "serial numbers" but the smaller (more likely to be found in homes) systems are almost "PC" like in using 'commodity parts'. On the other hand if the lawyers can find a way to license the individual rather than the machine paragraph 8.5 disappears. > (b) SCO shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to LICENSEE > and through SCO's accredited auditing representative, to make an > on-site inspection during normal business hours, not more Let me know when you're dropping in - I make a wicked batch of chili if I have a day or so's notice From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1997/09/18 Received: from sco.sco.COM (sco.sco.COM [132.147.128.9]) by henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.7.5/8.7.3) with SMTP id EAA03746 for ; Fri, 19 Sep 1997 04:52:34 +1000 (EST) Received: from tahoe.pdev.sco.com by sco.sco.COM id aa28934; 18 Sep 97 11:46 PDT From: Dion X-Mailer: SCO OpenServer Mail Release 5.0 To: wkt@henry.cs.adfa.oz.au Subject: Re: first draft of jurassaic UNIX license Cc: sms@moe.2bsd.com Date: Thu, 18 Sep 97 11:31:26 PDT Message-ID: <9709181131.aa07184@tahoe.pdev.sco.com> Status: ROr Eminent colleagues, Yes, I agree there are a number of changes needed.

Export: How am I going to distribute src/binaries to other LICENSEES if this restriction is in place? Do I have to get consent for each individual export event? 5.2 Does this section apply to non-US citizens living in non-US countries? If so, how can I obtain Supplement No. 1 to Section 370 of the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. Single CPU Limitation --------------------- This is _extremely_ unfair. In fact I can't believe that this is in the draft license. I'll show you why this is a futile clause, later. But first, how is SCO going to deal with emulated PDP-11s, which do not have a DESIGNATED CPU? List of UNIX Versions --------------------- SCO also owns the copyright to PWB UNIX and Mini UNIX. Please can they be covered? 32V is missing as well, it's a pity that the license does not cover 32V. What is SCO's stand going to be on the derived Unix flavours which they don't strictly own, such as AUSAM, 2BSD etc?? Miscellaneous ------------- Can we make backups of the software? Which clause permits us to do this? Single CPU Futility ------------------- For at least 5th, 6th and 7th Edition, the single CPU restriction is futile, given SCO's existing binary license for these versions: 1 DEFINITIONS LICENSED SOFTWARE shall mean solely the object code of the following versions of SCO's UNIX operating system software: Versions V5, V6, and V7 adapted for PDP-11 computer systems. SCO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS shall mean patent, copyright and trade secret rights of The Santa Cruz Operation, Inc.

I dont really understand how contracts are supposed to work internationally. This document is probably available from the US govt printing office. I will ask the legal folks to provide a pointer. Single CPU Limitation --------------------- This is _extremely_ unfair. In fact I can't believe that this is in the draft license. I'll show you why this is a futile clause, later. But first, how is SCO going to deal with emulated PDP-11s, which do not have a DESIGNATED CPU? Right. I am defining "DESIGNATED CPU GROUP" List of UNIX Versions --------------------- SCO also owns the copyright to PWB UNIX and Mini UNIX. Please can they be covered? 32V is missing as well, it's a pity that the license does not cover 32V. What is SCO's stand going to be on the derived Unix flavours which they don't strictly own, such as AUSAM, 2BSD etc?? Well, it does say "including SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEMS". I think they want to avoid enumerating some of these flavors to which we may not own full rights. I will try to fix up the definition of successors to include everything up to but not including system III or so. Miscellaneous ------------- Can we make backups of the software? Which clause permits us to do this? This license seems to incorporate a lot of stuff in the word "use". You are allowed to USE the the source code. Reasonably, this means to make backup copies, to compile (i.e., make modifications), etc. Certainly you would be allowed to transmit the product between the machines in the CPU GROUP, and to other licensees. I think for our purposes, the word "use" is desirably vague and better than spelling out "copy, modify, transmit, ... etc." Single CPU Futility ------------------- For at least 5th, 6th and 7th Edition, the single CPU restriction is futile, given SCO's existing binary license for these versions: 1 DEFINITIONS LICENSED SOFTWARE shall mean solely the object code of the following versions of SCO's UNIX operating system software: Versions V5, V6, and V7 adapted for PDP-11 computer systems.

I re-read our SysVR2.0 license and, yes, it looks like a simple cut&paste job with now-irrelevant clauses. Hopefully we can excise them. Can you push them on the issue of PWB/UNIX, Mini UNIX and 32V? You guys own these products, and it would be nice for them to be licensable. If they cannot be licensed, then that's a substantial part of history we will have no legal access to. If these systems are not included in the license, what will happen to us if we distribute them to licensees of Editions 1 to 7? I wish I could have been born earlier, Dion!

If SCO will address the single country and signle CPU restrictions, then I can't think of much else that needs to be done. You also mentioned adding something to the effect that the license covers everything before System III; that would be fantastic. I think I'd be very happy if the license just covered personal use and not academic use. I can't see many lecturers teaching with these systems; not when Plan 9 and Minix are available. If you want to add in clauses that permit use of the source in a teaching environment, that would be a bonus. Otherwise, universities which do require `academic' licenses will need to ask SCO for a special dispensation - I doubt you will get many.

I assume the PDP-11 source license is a low-priority thing, no worries. Someone on the PDP-11 mailing list asked about Xenix for the PDP-11. I know that Microsoft originally developed Xenix, but does SCO now own the rights to Xenix outright? If so, then the SCO source license should cover the PDP-11 version of Xenix. Attached is some email about PDP-11 Xenix. Thanks again! Warren ----- Forwarded message from David C. Jenner ----- From: "David C. Jenner" CC: PDP-11 Unix Preservation Society Subject: Re: PDP-11 Xenix (LONG) OK, Frank is likely correct. But I still don't think you'll find it anywhere on the 'net! It would be nice if it were in the PUP archives, though. Getting it there might be hard because MS might still have some rights to it. I did some digging, and here are some relevant dates: 8/25/80 Microsoft announced DEC PDP-11 XENIX (along with versions for several other machines--Intel 8086, Zilog Z8000, and Motorola M68000). [This would have to be Version 7 based.] 10/01/80 Microsoft notes PDP-11 XENIX is "scheduled for release". [It's not clear if this means it was actually released on that date.] 12/08/81 Microsoft and SCO signed a letter of intent for SCO to be a second-source of XENIX. [No mention of PDP-11; just that XENIX was being upgraded to System III at that time.] 1/22/85 Microsoft and AT&T announce plans for compatible future releases of XENIX and UNIX [based on System V]. 1/31/86 Microsoft and SCO announce new agreements for SCO to be prime distrubutor of XENIX System V to VAR and VAD channels. 2/15/89 Microsoft makes 20% minority investment in SCO. [I seem to recall that SCO got (all?) XENIX rights at this time.] So it looks like there was a window of about a year when a Version 7 based XENIX was probably available. Certainly starting in 1983 Microsoft announced all sorts of versions of XENIX for other hardware, including IBM System 9000 (yes, there really was a HAL 9000 (Motorola MC68000-based)--I had a couple), IBM PC/AT, AT&T UNIX PC and PC 6300, and Compaq machines.

Note that 1) multiple CPUs are handled 2) Multiple countries are handled by the device of filling in the "AUTHORIZED COUNTRY" blank with a list of countries. 3) Fee is $100 one-time only 4) Other variants on the early UNIX, such as MINI-UNIX could be viewed as successors to, say, 3rd edition, so they are covered. Only system V is excepted. Pls take a look and let me know if you think the rest of the stuff is either OK or bendable enough. It may be we will have to settle for an agreement that has to be interpreted in a certain way, in order for you to do what you want. So be it. SCO is never going to hassle anyone over this, I am sure. -Dion Agreement Number: ________________ THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT A. THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC., a California corporation (SCO), having an office at 400 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 and LICENSEE, as defined in the signature block of this Agreement agree that, as of the Effective Date hereof, as defined in Section 7.1, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall apply to use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. B. SCO makes certain licensing rights for SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS available under this Agreement, including rights to make and use DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS. Such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is identified in Section 3 of this Agreement . C. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter hereof and merge all prior discussions between them, and neither of the parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, warranties, understandings or representations with respect to such subject matter other than as expressly provided herein or as duly set forth on or subsequent to the date of acceptance hereof in writing and signed by a proper and duly authorized representative of the party to be bound thereby. No provision appearing on any form originated by LICENSEE shall be applicable unless such provision is expressly accepted in writing by an authorized representative of SCO. F. The AUTHORIZED COUNTRY for this Agreement shall be ______________________. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives. LICENSEE: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. __________________________________ By:_________________________________ (Name) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Title) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Date) __________________________________ (By) __________________________________ (Print or Type Name __________________________________ (Title) I.

Such offering may also include OBJECT CODE components. 1.9 SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEM means a SCO software offering that is (i) specifically designed for a 16-Bit computer and (ii) specifically excludes UNIX System V and successor operating systems. 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS 2.1 (a) SCO grants to LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to use, in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY, each SOURCE CODE PRODUCT identified in Section 3 of this Agreement, solely for personal use (as restricted in Section 2.1(b)) and solely on or in conjunction with DESIGNATED CPUs, and/or Networks of CPUs, licensed by LICENSEE through this SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. Such right to use includes the right to modify such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT and to prepare DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT based on such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, provided that any such modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that contains any part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement is treated hereunder the same as such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. SCO claims no ownership interest in any portion of such a modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is not part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. (b) Personal use is limited to noncommercial uses. Any such use made in connection with the development of enhancements or modifications to SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS is permitted only if (i) neither the results of such use nor any enhancement or modification so developed is intended primarily for the benefit of a third party and (ii) any copy of any such result, enhancement or modification, furnished by LICENSEE to a third party holder of an equivalent Software License with SCO where permitted by Section 8.4(b) below, is furnished for no more than the cost of reproduction and shipping. Any such copy that includes any portion of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be subject to the provisions of such Section 8.4. (c) LICENSEE may produce printed and on-line copies of documentation included with the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT as necessary for use with the DESIGNATED CPUs. All copies must include a legally sufficient copyright notice and a statement that the documents include a portion or all of SCO's copyrighted documentation, which is being reproduced with permission. (d) Commercial use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS or of any result, enhancement or modification associated with the use of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS under this Agreement is not permitted. Such commercial use is permissible only pursuant to the terms of an appropriate commercial software agreement between SCO or a corporate affiliate thereof and LICENSEE. For purposes of this Agreement, commercial use includes, but is not limited to, furnishing copies to third parties in a manner not permitted by Section 8.4(b). (e) SCO also grants LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to make copies of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS and, subject to U. S. Government export requirements and to Section 8.4(b), to furnish such copies directly to other LICENSEES who have an equivalent Software License with SCO before or at the time of furnishing each copy of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT. 2.2 (a) Any notice acknowledging a contribution of a third party appearing in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be included in corresponding portions of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS made by LICENSEE. (b) Each portion of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT shall include an appropriate copyright notice. Such copyright notice may be the copyright notice or notices appearing in or on the corresponding portions of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT on which such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is based or, if copyrightable changes are made in developing such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT, a copyright notice identifying the owner of such changes. 2.3 No right is granted hereunder to use any trademark of SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). However, LICENSEE must state in packaging, labeling or other wise that a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is derived from SCO's software under license from SCO and identify such software (including any trademark, provided the proprietor of the trademark is appropriately identified). LICENSEE agrees not to use a name or trademark for a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is confusingly similar to a name or trademark used by SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). 2.4 A single back-up CPU may be used as a substitute for the DESIGNATED CPU without notice to SCO during any time when such DESIGNATED CPU is inoperative because it is malfunctioning or undergoing repair, maintenance or other modification. 3. LICENSED SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS The SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS to which SCO grants rights under this Agreement are restricted to the following UNIX Operating Systems, including SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEMs, that operate on the 16-Bit PDP-11 CPU and early versions of the 32-Bit UNIX Operating System with specific exclusion of UNIX System V and successor operating systems: 16-Bit UNIX Edition 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 32V 32-Bit 4. DELIVERY SCO makes no guarantees or commitments that any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is available from SCO. If available, SCO will, within a reasonable time after SCO receives the fee specified in this Agreement for a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, furnish to LICENSEE one (1) copy of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 5. EXPORT 5.1 LICENSEE agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of SCO, export, directly or indirectly, SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS covered by this Agreement to any country outside of the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY. 5.2 LICENSEE hereby assures SCO that it does not intend to and will not knowingly, without the prior written consent, if required, of the Office of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230, transmit, directly or indirectly: (i) any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement; or (ii) any immediate product (including processes) produced directly by the use of any such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT; to Afghanistan, the People's Republic of China or any Group Q, S, W, Y or Z country specified in Supplement No. 1 to Section 370 of the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. 5.3 LICENSEE agrees that its obligations under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 6. FEES AND TAXES 6.1 In consideration for the rights granted to LICENSEE for use of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS identified in Section 3 above, LICENSEE shall pay to SCO a one-time Right-to-Use Fee of US$100.00 for the DESIGNATED CPUs at the time this Agreement is returned to SCO for final execution. 6.2 Payment to SCO shall be made in United States dollars to SCO at the address specified in Section 8.8(a). 6.3 LICENSEE shall pay all taxes (and any related interest or penalty), however designated, imposed as a result of the existence or operation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any tax which LICENSEE is required to withhold or deduct from payment to SCO, except (i) any tax imposed upon SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof) in the jurisdiction in which the aforesaid office of LICENSEE is located if such tax is allowable as a credit against United States income taxes of SCO (or such an affiliate) and (ii) any income tax imposed upon SCO (or such an affiliate) by the United States or any governmental entity within the United States proper (the fifty (50) states and the District of Columbia). To assist in obtaining the credit identified in (i) of this Section 5.05, LICENSEE shall furnish SCO with such evidence as may be required by United States taxing authorities to establish that any such tax has been paid. The Fee specified in Section 6.1 above do not include taxes. If SCO is required to collect a tax to be paid by LICENSEE, LICENSEE shall pay such tax to SCO on demand. 7. TERM 7.1 This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the date of acceptance by SCO. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for one (1) year. Thereafter, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms unless either party gives the other, no later than ninety (90) days before the end of the initial term, or then current extension, written notice of its intent to terminate this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require either party to extend this Agreement beyond the initial term or any subsequent term. 7.2 LICENSEE may terminate its rights under this Agreement by written notice to SCO certifying that LICENSEE has discontinued use of and returned or destroyed, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. 7.3 If LICENSEE fails to fulfill one or more of its obligations under this Agreement, SCO may, upon its election and in addition to any other remedies it might have, at any time terminate all the rights granted by it hereunder by not less than two (2) months' written notice to LICENSEE specifying any such breach, unless within the period of such notice all breaches specified therein shall have been remedied; upon such termination LICENSEE shall immediately discontinue use of and return or destroy, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in its possession. 7.4 In the event of termination of LICENSEE's rights under Sections 7.2 or 7.3, (i) all fees that LICENSEE has become obligated to pay shall become immediately due and payable and (ii) SCO shall have no obligation to refund any amounts paid to it hereunder. 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 8.1 This Agreement shall prevail notwithstanding any conflicting terms or legends which may appear in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.2 If, and only if, SCO is the entity that provides SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE, SCO warrants for a period of ninety (90) days from furnishing a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE hereunder, that any magnetic medium on which portions of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT are furnished will be free under normal use from defects in materials, workmanship or recording. If such a defect appears within such warranty period LICENSEE may return the defective medium for replacement without charge. Replacement is LICENSEE's sole remedy with respect to such a defect. SCO also warrants that it is empowered to grant the rights granted herein. SCO and other developers make no other representations or warranties, expressly or impliedly. By way of example but not of limitation, SCO and other developers make no representations or warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, or that the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT will not infringe any patent, copyright or trademark. SCO and other developers shall not be held to any liability with respect to any claim by LICENSEE, or a third party on account of, or arising from, the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.3 Neither the execution of this Agreement nor anything in any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be construed as an obligation upon SCO or any other developer to furnish any person, including LICENSEE, any assistance of any kind whatsoever, or any information or documentation. 8.4 (a) LICENSEE agrees that it shall hold all parts of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement in confidence for SCO. LICENSEE further agrees that should it make such disclosure of any or all of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS (including methods or concepts utilized therein) to anyone to whom such disclosure is necessary to the use for which rights are granted hereunder, LICENSEE shall appropriately notify each such person to whom any such disclosure is made that such disclosure is made in confidence and shall be kept in confidence and have each such person sign a confidentiality agreement containing restrictions on disclosure substantially similar to those set forth herein. If LICENSEE should become aware of a violation of SCO's intellectual property and/or proprietary rights, LICENSEE shall promptly notify SCO and cooperate with SCO in such enforcement. If information relating to a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement at any time becomes available without restriction to the general public by acts not attributable to LICENSEE, LICENSEE's obligations under this section shall not apply to such information after such time. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a), LICENSEE may make available copies of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, either in modified or unmodified form, to third parties in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY having Source Code Licenses of the same scope herewith from SCO for the same SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, if and only if (i) LICENSEE first requests verification the status of the recipient by contacting SCO at the address contained in Section 8.8(b) or other number specified by SCO, and (ii) SCO gives written verification of the recipient's software license status. LICENSEE shall maintain a record of each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT made available. 8.5 (a) On SCO's request, but not more frequently than annually, LICENSEE shall furnish to SCO a statement, listing the location, type and serial number of the DESIGNATED CPU hereunder and stating that the use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement has been reviewed and that each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU (or temporarily on a back-up CPU) for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in full compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. (b) SCO shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to LICENSEE and through SCO's accredited auditing representative, to make an on-site inspection during normal business hours, not more frequently than annually, of all LICENSEE's CPUs to determine that SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS are being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU and are used solely for personal purposes as authorized under this Agreement. 8.6 The obligations of LICENSEE under Section 8.4 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 8.7 Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by LICENSEE and any purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. 8.8 (a) Payments to SCO under this Agreement shall be made payable and sent to: CHECK DRAWN ON U.S. BANK TO: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. P.O. Box 7745 San Francisco, CA 94120-7745 (b) Correspondence with SCO relating to this Agreement shall be sent to: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. 400 Encinal Street Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 United States of America Attention: Law and Corporate Affairs (c) Any statement, notice, request or other communication shall be deemed to be sufficiently given to the addressee and any delivery hereunder deemed made when sent by certified mail addressed to LICENSEE at its office specified in this Agreement or to SCO at the appropriate address specified in this Section 7.7.

Whoops. The only quibble, and it's a small one (the new license agreement is a vast improvement over the previous ones) is the mention of 'serial number': "type and serial number of the DESIGNATED CPU hereunder and ..." Providing a description of the system is not a problem. How much detail would be desireable?

Warren and I can arm-wrestle for who gets License #1 :-) :-) I've read the new version a couple times. It reads much better than before (simpler in many places) and addresses the questions that were raised.

SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT A. THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC., a California corporation (SCO), having an office at 400 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 and LICENSEE, as defined in the signature block of this Agreement agree that, as of the Effective Date hereof, as defined in Section 7.1, the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement shall apply to use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. B. SCO makes certain licensing rights for SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS available under this Agreement, including rights to make and use DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS. Such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is identified in Section 3 of this Agreement . C. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter hereof and merge all prior discussions between them, and neither of the parties shall be bound by any conditions, definitions, warranties, understandings or representations with respect to such subject matter other than as expressly provided herein or as duly set forth on or subsequent to the date of acceptance hereof in writing and signed by a proper and duly authorized representative of the party to be bound thereby. No provision appearing on any form originated by LICENSEE shall be applicable unless such provision is expressly accepted in writing by an authorized representative of SCO. F. The AUTHORIZED COUNTRY for this Agreement shall be ______________________. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives. LICENSEE: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. __________________________________ By:_________________________________ (Name) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Title) __________________________________ ____________________________________ (Address) (Date) __________________________________ (By) __________________________________ (Print or Type Name __________________________________ (Title) I. DEFINITIONS 1.1 AUTHORIZED COUNTRY means one or more countries specified on page 1 of this Agreement. 1.2 CPU means a computer having one or more processing units and a single global memory space. 1.3 COMPUTER PROGRAM means any instruction or instructions for controlling the operation of a CPU. 1.4 DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT means COMPUTER PROGRAMS in OBJECT CODE format based on a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.5 DESIGNATED CPU means all CPUs licensed as such for a specific SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.6 OBJECT CODE means a COMPUTER PROGRAM in binary form, resulting from the compilation of SOURCE CODE by computer or compiler into machine executable code and which is in a form of computer programs not convenient to human understanding of the program logic, but which is appropriate for execution or interpretation by computer. 1.7 SOURCE CODE means COMPUTER PROGRAMS written in certain programming languages in electronic media form and in a form convenient for reading and review by a trained individual, such as a printed or written listing of programs, containing specific algorithms, instructions, plans, routines and the like, for controlling the operation of a computer system, but which is not in a form that would be suitable for execution directly on computer hardware. 1.8 SOURCE CODE PRODUCT means a SCO software offering, primarily in SOURCE CODE form. Such offering may also include OBJECT CODE components. 1.9 SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEM means a SCO software offering that is (i) specifically designed for a 16-Bit computer, or (ii) the 32V version, and (ii) specifically excludes UNIX System V and successor operating systems. 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS 2.1 (a) SCO grants to LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to use, in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY, each SOURCE CODE PRODUCT identified in Section 3 of this Agreement, solely for personal use (as restricted in Section 2.1(b)) and solely on or in conjunction with DESIGNATED CPUs, and/or Networks of CPUs, licensed by LICENSEE through this SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. Such right to use includes the right to modify such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT and to prepare DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT based on such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, provided that any such modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that contains any part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement is treated hereunder the same as such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. SCO claims no ownership interest in any portion of such a modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is not part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. (b) Personal use is limited to noncommercial uses. Any such use made in connection with the development of enhancements or modifications to SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS is permitted only if (i) neither the results of such use nor any enhancement or modification so developed is intended primarily for the benefit of a third party and (ii) any copy of any such result, enhancement or modification, furnished by LICENSEE to a third party holder of an equivalent Software License with SCO where permitted by Section 8.4(b) below, is furnished for no more than the cost of reproduction and shipping. Any such copy that includes any portion of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be subject to the provisions of such Section 8.4. (c) LICENSEE may produce printed and on-line copies of documentation included with the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT as necessary for use with the DESIGNATED CPUs. All copies must include a legally sufficient copyright notice and a statement that the documents include a portion or all of SCO's copyrighted documentation, which is being reproduced with permission. (d) Commercial use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS or of any result, enhancement or modification associated with the use of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS under this Agreement is not permitted. Such commercial use is permissible only pursuant to the terms of an appropriate commercial software agreement between SCO or a corporate affiliate thereof and LICENSEE. For purposes of this Agreement, commercial use includes, but is not limited to, furnishing copies to third parties in a manner not permitted by Section 8.4(b). (e) SCO also grants LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to make copies of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS and, subject to U. S. Government export requirements and to Section 8.4(b), to furnish such copies directly to other LICENSEES who have an equivalent Software License with SCO before or at the time of furnishing each copy of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT. 2.2 (a) Any notice acknowledging a contribution of a third party appearing in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be included in corresponding portions of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS made by LICENSEE. (b) Each portion of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT shall include an appropriate copyright notice. Such copyright notice may be the copyright notice or notices appearing in or on the corresponding portions of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT on which such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is based or, if copyrightable changes are made in developing such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT, a copyright notice identifying the owner of such changes. 2.3 No right is granted hereunder to use any trademark of SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). However, LICENSEE must state in packaging, labeling or other wise that a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is derived from SCO's software under license from SCO and identify such software (including any trademark, provided the proprietor of the trademark is appropriately identified). LICENSEE agrees not to use a name or trademark for a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is confusingly similar to a name or trademark used by SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). 2.4 A single back-up CPU may be used as a substitute for the DESIGNATED CPU without notice to SCO during any time when such DESIGNATED CPU is inoperative because it is malfunctioning or undergoing repair, maintenance or other modification. 3. LICENSED SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS The SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS to which SCO grants rights under this Agreement are restricted to the following UNIX Operating Systems, including SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEMs, that operate on the 16-Bit PDP-11 CPU and early versions of the 32-Bit UNIX Operating System with specific exclusion of UNIX System V and successor operating systems: 16-Bit UNIX Editions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 32-bit 32V 4. DELIVERY SCO makes no guarantees or commitments that any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is available from SCO. If available, SCO will, within a reasonable time after SCO receives the fee specified in this Agreement for a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, furnish to LICENSEE one (1) copy of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 5. EXPORT 5.1 LICENSEE agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of SCO, export, directly or indirectly, SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS covered by this Agreement to any country outside of the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY. 5.2 LICENSEE hereby assures SCO that it does not intend to and will not knowingly, without the prior written consent, if required, of the Office of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230, transmit, directly or indirectly: (i) any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement; or (ii) any immediate product (including processes) produced directly by the use of any such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT; to Afghanistan, the People's Republic of China or any Group Q, S, W, Y or Z country specified in Supplement No. 1 to Section 370 of the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. 5.3 LICENSEE agrees that its obligations under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 6. FEES AND TAXES 6.1 In consideration for the rights granted to LICENSEE for use of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS identified in Section 3 above, LICENSEE shall pay to SCO a one-time Right-to-Use Fee of US$100.00 for the DESIGNATED CPUs at the time this Agreement is returned to SCO for final execution. 6.2 Payment to SCO shall be made in United States dollars to SCO at the address specified in Section 8.8(a). 6.3 LICENSEE shall pay all taxes (and any related interest or penalty), however designated, imposed as a result of the existence or operation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any tax which LICENSEE is required to withhold or deduct from payment to SCO, except (i) any tax imposed upon SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof) in the jurisdiction in which the aforesaid office of LICENSEE is located if such tax is allowable as a credit against United States income taxes of SCO (or such an affiliate) and (ii) any income tax imposed upon SCO (or such an affiliate) by the United States or any governmental entity within the United States proper (the fifty (50) states and the District of Columbia). To assist in obtaining the credit identified in (i) of this Section 5.05, LICENSEE shall furnish SCO with such evidence as may be required by United States taxing authorities to establish that any such tax has been paid. The Fee specified in Section 6.1 above do not include taxes. If SCO is required to collect a tax to be paid by LICENSEE, LICENSEE shall pay such tax to SCO on demand. 7. TERM 7.1 This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the date of acceptance by SCO. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for one (1) year. Thereafter, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms unless either party gives the other, no later than ninety (90) days before the end of the initial term, or then current extension, written notice of its intent to terminate this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require either party to extend this Agreement beyond the initial term or any subsequent term. 7.2 LICENSEE may terminate its rights under this Agreement by written notice to SCO certifying that LICENSEE has discontinued use of and returned or destroyed, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. 7.3 If LICENSEE fails to fulfill one or more of its obligations under this Agreement, SCO may, upon its election and in addition to any other remedies it might have, at any time terminate all the rights granted by it hereunder by not less than two (2) months' written notice to LICENSEE specifying any such breach, unless within the period of such notice all breaches specified therein shall have been remedied; upon such termination LICENSEE shall immediately discontinue use of and return or destroy, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in its possession. 7.4 In the event of termination of LICENSEE's rights under Sections 7.2 or 7.3, (i) all fees that LICENSEE has become obligated to pay shall become immediately due and payable and (ii) SCO shall have no obligation to refund any amounts paid to it hereunder. 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 8.1 This Agreement shall prevail notwithstanding any conflicting terms or legends which may appear in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.2 If, and only if, SCO is the entity that provides SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE, SCO warrants for a period of ninety (90) days from furnishing a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE hereunder, that any magnetic medium on which portions of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT are furnished will be free under normal use from defects in materials, workmanship or recording. If such a defect appears within such warranty period LICENSEE may return the defective medium for replacement without charge. Replacement is LICENSEE's sole remedy with respect to such a defect. SCO also warrants that it is empowered to grant the rights granted herein. SCO and other developers make no other representations or warranties, expressly or impliedly. By way of example but not of limitation, SCO and other developers make no representations or warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, or that the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT will not infringe any patent, copyright or trademark. SCO and other developers shall not be held to any liability with respect to any claim by LICENSEE, or a third party on account of, or arising from, the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.3 Neither the execution of this Agreement nor anything in any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be construed as an obligation upon SCO or any other developer to furnish any person, including LICENSEE, any assistance of any kind whatsoever, or any information or documentation. 8.4 (a) LICENSEE agrees that it shall hold all parts of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement in confidence for SCO. LICENSEE further agrees that should it make such disclosure of any or all of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS (including methods or concepts utilized therein) to anyone to whom such disclosure is necessary to the use for which rights are granted hereunder, LICENSEE shall appropriately notify each such person to whom any such disclosure is made that such disclosure is made in confidence and shall be kept in confidence and have each such person sign a confidentiality agreement containing restrictions on disclosure substantially similar to those set forth herein. If LICENSEE should become aware of a violation of SCO's intellectual property and/or proprietary rights, LICENSEE shall promptly notify SCO and cooperate with SCO in such enforcement. If information relating to a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement at any time becomes available without restriction to the general public by acts not attributable to LICENSEE, LICENSEE's obligations under this section shall not apply to such information after such time. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a), LICENSEE may make available copies of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, either in modified or unmodified form, to third parties in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY having Source Code Licenses of the same scope herewith from SCO for the same SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, if and only if (i) LICENSEE first requests verification the status of the recipient by contacting SCO at the address contained in Section 8.8(b) or other number specified by SCO, and (ii) SCO gives written verification of the recipient's software license status. LICENSEE shall maintain a record of each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT made available. 8.5 (a) On SCO's request, but not more frequently than annually, LICENSEE shall furnish to SCO a statement, listing the location, type and serial number of the DESIGNATED CPU hereunder and stating that the use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement has been reviewed and that each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU (or temporarily on a back-up CPU) for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in full compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. (b) SCO shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to LICENSEE and through SCO's accredited auditing representative, to make an on-site inspection during normal business hours, not more frequently than annually, of all LICENSEE's CPUs to determine that SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS are being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU and are used solely for personal purposes as authorized under this Agreement. 8.6 The obligations of LICENSEE under Section 8.4 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 8.7 Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by LICENSEE and any purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. 8.8 (a) Payments to SCO under this Agreement shall be made payable and sent to: CHECK DRAWN ON U.S. BANK TO: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. P.O. Box 7745 San Francisco, CA 94120-7745 (b) Correspondence with SCO relating to this Agreement shall be sent to: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. 400 Encinal Street Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 United States of America Attention: Law and Corporate Affairs (c) Any statement, notice, request or other communication shall be deemed to be sufficiently given to the addressee and any delivery hereunder deemed made when sent by certified mail addressed to LICENSEE at its office specified in this Agreement or to SCO at the appropriate address specified in this Section 7.7.

I think we need a simplified summary of the license to be online, perhaps at your website if that's the right place, and also at our website. I suspect our legal folks will not want the entire license text to be online. So, you will request the license form from SCO; we mail it. You fill in the designated CPU info, and what countries are to be covered. I will try to track down what is the list of "bad" countries. > > I'll also need a contact in licensing, so that I can get written authorization > when I need to pass source code copies to new licencees.

So, we simply make up a list of countries and print it on a page and attach it to the license as licensee-submitted data.

I was hoping you enthusiasts already have all the code and can share it among yourselves as needed. E.g. if a new player wants the stuff, they send us $100 and a filled out license form. Then we notify you (or notify the PUPS society) that this person is licensed, and you guys figure out how to service the new guy. Would that work?

But I just went over and talked to some of the legal folks here... as far as they are concerned, this is not a big exposure. So you can put it on your website, and we may (or may not) put it on ours. In any case, we would like to put a link to your website. We will probably create a PR-oriented web page about this, giving credit to you and PUPS et al who signed the petition or whatever makes sense. So I guess we can do whatever feels reasonable. We can always spot check these (or check every one of them if someone wants to). But will not do any fancy authentication procedures. Someday in the future when electronic commerce is more developed things like verification of forms and electronic signatures will be commonplace... So I guess what we have is this: 1. prospective licensee gets the form from your website. 2. He signs and sends to us here and sends his $100 to SF PO box 3. Someone here lets you know that he is a licensee. 4. You can send him the source code (and charge a fee for that as you see fit). As soon as I get an answer on the credit card/ IMO question, we are done, it seems. -Dion > Having a .ps or .pdf or .doc version of the license available on your > web site (or ftp site) would be much better.

DEFINITIONS 1.1 AUTHORIZED COUNTRY means one or more countries specified on page 1 of this Agreement. 1.2 CPU means a computer having one or more processing units and a single global memory space. 1.3 COMPUTER PROGRAM means any instruction or instructions for controlling the operation of a CPU. 1.4 DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT means COMPUTER PROGRAMS in OBJECT CODE format based on a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.5 DESIGNATED CPU means all CPUs licensed as such for a specific SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 1.6 OBJECT CODE means a COMPUTER PROGRAM in binary form, resulting from the compilation of SOURCE CODE by computer or compiler into machine executable code and which is in a form of computer programs not convenient to human understanding of the program logic, but which is appropriate for execution or interpretation by computer. 1.7 SOURCE CODE means COMPUTER PROGRAMS written in certain programming languages in electronic media form and in a form convenient for reading and review by a trained individual, such as a printed or written listing of programs, containing specific algorithms, instructions, plans, routines and the like, for controlling the operation of a computer system, but which is not in a form that would be suitable for execution directly on computer hardware. 1.8 SOURCE CODE PRODUCT means a SCO software offering, primarily in SOURCE CODE form. Such offering may also include OBJECT CODE components. 1.9 SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEM means a SCO software offering that is (i) specifically designed for a 16-Bit computer, or (ii) the 32V version, and (ii) specifically excludes UNIX System V and successor operating systems. 2. GRANT OF RIGHTS 2.1 (a) SCO grants to LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to use, in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY, each SOURCE CODE PRODUCT identified in Section 3 of this Agreement, solely for personal use (as restricted in Section 2.1(b)) and solely on or in conjunction with DESIGNATED CPUs, and/or Networks of CPUs, licensed by LICENSEE through this SPECIAL SOFTWARE LICENSE AGREEMENT for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. Such right to use includes the right to modify such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT and to prepare DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT based on such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, provided that any such modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that contains any part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement is treated hereunder the same as such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. SCO claims no ownership interest in any portion of such a modification or DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is not part of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. (b) Personal use is limited to noncommercial uses. Any such use made in connection with the development of enhancements or modifications to SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS is permitted only if (i) neither the results of such use nor any enhancement or modification so developed is intended primarily for the benefit of a third party and (ii) any copy of any such result, enhancement or modification, furnished by LICENSEE to a third party holder of an equivalent Software License with SCO where permitted by Section 8.4(b) below, is furnished for no more than the cost of reproduction and shipping. Any such copy that includes any portion of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be subject to the provisions of such Section 8.4. (c) LICENSEE may produce printed and on-line copies of documentation included with the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT as necessary for use with the DESIGNATED CPUs. All copies must include a legally sufficient copyright notice and a statement that the documents include a portion or all of SCO's copyrighted documentation, which is being reproduced with permission. (d) Commercial use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS or of any result, enhancement or modification associated with the use of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS under this Agreement is not permitted. Such commercial use is permissible only pursuant to the terms of an appropriate commercial software agreement between SCO or a corporate affiliate thereof and LICENSEE. For purposes of this Agreement, commercial use includes, but is not limited to, furnishing copies to third parties in a manner not permitted by Section 8.4(b). (e) SCO also grants LICENSEE a personal, nontransferable and nonexclusive right to make copies of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS and, subject to U. S. Government export requirements and to Section 8.4(b), to furnish such copies directly to other LICENSEES who have an equivalent Software License with SCO before or at the time of furnishing each copy of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT. 2.2 (a) Any notice acknowledging a contribution of a third party appearing in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be included in corresponding portions of DERIVED BINARY PRODUCTS made by LICENSEE. (b) Each portion of a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT shall include an appropriate copyright notice. Such copyright notice may be the copyright notice or notices appearing in or on the corresponding portions of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCT on which such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is based or, if copyrightable changes are made in developing such DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT, a copyright notice identifying the owner of such changes. 2.3 No right is granted hereunder to use any trademark of SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). However, LICENSEE must state in packaging, labeling or other wise that a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT is derived from SCO's software under license from SCO and identify such software (including any trademark, provided the proprietor of the trademark is appropriately identified). LICENSEE agrees not to use a name or trademark for a DERIVED BINARY PRODUCT that is confusingly similar to a name or trademark used by SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof). 2.4 A single back-up CPU may be used as a substitute for the DESIGNATED CPU without notice to SCO during any time when such DESIGNATED CPU is inoperative because it is malfunctioning or undergoing repair, maintenance or other modification. 3. LICENSED SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS The SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS to which SCO grants rights under this Agreement are restricted to the following UNIX Operating Systems, including SUCCESSOR OPERATING SYSTEMs, that operate on the 16-Bit PDP-11 CPU and early versions of the 32-Bit UNIX Operating System with specific exclusion of UNIX System V and successor operating systems: 16-Bit UNIX Editions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 32-bit 32V 4. DELIVERY SCO makes no guarantees or commitments that any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is available from SCO. If available, SCO will, within a reasonable time after SCO receives the fee specified in this Agreement for a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, furnish to LICENSEE one (1) copy of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 5. EXPORT 5.1 LICENSEE agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of SCO, export, directly or indirectly, SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS covered by this Agreement to any country outside of the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY. 5.2 LICENSEE hereby assures SCO that it does not intend to and will not knowingly, without the prior written consent, if required, of the Office of Export Administration of the U.S. Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C. 20230, transmit, directly or indirectly: (i) any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement; or (ii) any immediate product (including processes) produced directly by the use of any such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT; to Afghanistan, the People's Republic of China or any Group Q, S, W, Y or Z country specified in Supplement No. 1 to Section 370 of the Export Administration Regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce. 5.3 LICENSEE agrees that its obligations under Sections 5.1 and 5.2 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 6. FEES AND TAXES 6.1 In consideration for the rights granted to LICENSEE for use of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS identified in Section 3 above, LICENSEE shall pay to SCO a one-time Right-to-Use Fee of US$100.00 for the DESIGNATED CPUs at the time this Agreement is returned to SCO for final execution. 6.2 Payment to SCO shall be made in United States dollars to SCO at the address specified in Section 8.8(a). 6.3 LICENSEE shall pay all taxes (and any related interest or penalty), however designated, imposed as a result of the existence or operation of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any tax which LICENSEE is required to withhold or deduct from payment to SCO, except (i) any tax imposed upon SCO (or a corporate affiliate thereof) in the jurisdiction in which the aforesaid office of LICENSEE is located if such tax is allowable as a credit against United States income taxes of SCO (or such an affiliate) and (ii) any income tax imposed upon SCO (or such an affiliate) by the United States or any governmental entity within the United States proper (the fifty (50) states and the District of Columbia). To assist in obtaining the credit identified in (i) of this Section 5.05, LICENSEE shall furnish SCO with such evidence as may be required by United States taxing authorities to establish that any such tax has been paid. The Fee specified in Section 6.1 above do not include taxes. If SCO is required to collect a tax to be paid by LICENSEE, LICENSEE shall pay such tax to SCO on demand. 7. TERM 7.1 This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the date of acceptance by SCO. The initial term of this Agreement shall be for one (1) year. Thereafter, the Agreement will automatically renew for successive one (1) year terms unless either party gives the other, no later than ninety (90) days before the end of the initial term, or then current extension, written notice of its intent to terminate this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require either party to extend this Agreement beyond the initial term or any subsequent term. 7.2 LICENSEE may terminate its rights under this Agreement by written notice to SCO certifying that LICENSEE has discontinued use of and returned or destroyed, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement. 7.3 If LICENSEE fails to fulfill one or more of its obligations under this Agreement, SCO may, upon its election and in addition to any other remedies it might have, at any time terminate all the rights granted by it hereunder by not less than two (2) months' written notice to LICENSEE specifying any such breach, unless within the period of such notice all breaches specified therein shall have been remedied; upon such termination LICENSEE shall immediately discontinue use of and return or destroy, at SCO's option, all copies of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in its possession. 7.4 In the event of termination of LICENSEE's rights under Sections 7.2 or 7.3, (i) all fees that LICENSEE has become obligated to pay shall become immediately due and payable and (ii) SCO shall have no obligation to refund any amounts paid to it hereunder. 8. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 8.1 This Agreement shall prevail notwithstanding any conflicting terms or legends which may appear in a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.2 If, and only if, SCO is the entity that provides SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE, SCO warrants for a period of ninety (90) days from furnishing a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT to LICENSEE hereunder, that any magnetic medium on which portions of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT are furnished will be free under normal use from defects in materials, workmanship or recording. If such a defect appears within such warranty period LICENSEE may return the defective medium for replacement without charge. Replacement is LICENSEE's sole remedy with respect to such a defect. SCO also warrants that it is empowered to grant the rights granted herein. SCO and other developers make no other representations or warranties, expressly or impliedly. By way of example but not of limitation, SCO and other developers make no representations or warranties of merchantability or fitness for any particular purpose, or that the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT will not infringe any patent, copyright or trademark. SCO and other developers shall not be held to any liability with respect to any claim by LICENSEE, or a third party on account of, or arising from, the use of any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT. 8.3 Neither the execution of this Agreement nor anything in any SOURCE CODE PRODUCT shall be construed as an obligation upon SCO or any other developer to furnish any person, including LICENSEE, any assistance of any kind whatsoever, or any information or documentation. 8.4 (a) LICENSEE agrees that it shall hold all parts of the SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement in confidence for SCO. LICENSEE further agrees that should it make such disclosure of any or all of such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS (including methods or concepts utilized therein) to anyone to whom such disclosure is necessary to the use for which rights are granted hereunder, LICENSEE shall appropriately notify each such person to whom any such disclosure is made that such disclosure is made in confidence and shall be kept in confidence and have each such person sign a confidentiality agreement containing restrictions on disclosure substantially similar to those set forth herein. If LICENSEE should become aware of a violation of SCO's intellectual property and/or proprietary rights, LICENSEE shall promptly notify SCO and cooperate with SCO in such enforcement. If information relating to a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT subject to this Agreement at any time becomes available without restriction to the general public by acts not attributable to LICENSEE, LICENSEE's obligations under this section shall not apply to such information after such time. (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 8.4(a), LICENSEE may make available copies of a SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, either in modified or unmodified form, to third parties in the AUTHORIZED COUNTRY having Source Code Licenses of the same scope herewith from SCO for the same SOURCE CODE PRODUCT, if and only if (i) LICENSEE first requests verification the status of the recipient by contacting SCO at the address contained in Section 8.8(b) or other number specified by SCO, and (ii) SCO gives written verification of the recipient's software license status. LICENSEE shall maintain a record of each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT made available. 8.5 (a) On SCO's request, but not more frequently than annually, LICENSEE shall furnish to SCO a statement, listing the location, type and serial number of the DESIGNATED CPU hereunder and stating that the use by LICENSEE of SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS subject to this Agreement has been reviewed and that each such SOURCE CODE PRODUCT is being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU (or temporarily on a back-up CPU) for such SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS in full compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. (b) SCO shall have the right, upon reasonable notice to LICENSEE and through SCO's accredited auditing representative, to make an on-site inspection during normal business hours, not more frequently than annually, of all LICENSEE's CPUs to determine that SOURCE CODE PRODUCTS are being used solely on the DESIGNATED CPU and are used solely for personal purposes as authorized under this Agreement. 8.6 The obligations of LICENSEE under Section 8.4 shall survive and continue after any termination of rights under this Agreement. 8.7 Neither this Agreement nor any rights hereunder, in whole or in part, shall be assignable or otherwise transferable by LICENSEE and any purported assignment or transfer shall be null and void. 8.8 (a) Payments to SCO under this Agreement shall be made in US dollars, by credit card (VISA, American Express, or Mastercard ONLY), International Money Order, or check drawn on U.S. bank payable to: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. P.O. Box 7745 San Francisco, CA 94120-7745 (b) Correspondence with SCO relating to this Agreement shall be sent to: THE SANTA CRUZ OPERATION, INC. 400 Encinal Street Santa Cruz, California 95061-1900 United States of America Attention: Law and Corporate Affairs (c) Any statement, notice, request or other communication shall be deemed to be sufficiently given to the addressee and any delivery hereunder deemed made when sent by certified mail addressed to LICENSEE at its office specified in this Agreement or to SCO at the appropriate address specified in this Section 7.7.

Let me know what you think. Pass this along to anyone else whom you wish to comment. 10 March 1998 SCO Provides Low-cost Source License for Ancient UNIX Versions -------------------------------------------------------------- SCO, in cooperation with the PDP-11 UNIX Preservation Society, is happy to announce the availability of a special software license for UNIX Editions 1-7 and 32V. This license permits hobbyists and enthusiasts to have access to the source code of these historic versions of UNIX, for personal and noncommercial use, and to share experiences and code updates with other licensees.

Some of the legal folks are still asking questions and raising objections, but I think the horse has already left the barn. ;-) Btw, another interesting question: How does PUPS, yourself, and various others in the ancient priesthood handle the word "Unix" ?

Some people here are trying to tell me that occurrences of "Unix" should be replaced by the trademarked version but I'm not sure that's true. The older version of the word relates to the Unix technology as it existed prior to the trademarked word, so I would try to argue that "Unix" is perfectly correct usage and does not refer to that thing which is called UNIX(R).

PGP is a public key system which provides both document encryption and authentication. Each person has a private key & a public key. The public key is distributed. To encrypt a document, you use the receiver's public key. Only the real receiver can decrypt the document, using their private key. To sign a document, you encrypt with your private key. Anybody with your public key can decrypt the document, and this proves that you were the signer. Encryption and authentication can be combined. I assume you have PGP version 2.6.3 installed on your system at SCO. To create your public/private key, do: $ pgp -kg 1024 which makes keys of 1024 bits. You can save your public key in fred.asc by $ pgp -kxa xxx fred where xxx is your login name. Put this file on your web page somewhere. To add someone else's key (in file jim.asc) to your list of keys: $ pgp -ka jim.asc It is best if you have your email built to use PGP transparently. Otherwise, here's what to do: Encrypt a document to remote user xxx: $ pgp -o newfile -ea file xxx Sign a document: $ pgp -o newfile -sa file Sign and encrypt: $ pgp -o newfile -sea file xxx Then attach newfile to the e-mail to user xxx. Decrypting incoming file: $ pgp -d infile Verifying signing of incoming file: $ pgp -d infile > We have about a dozen licenses here, all paid up and signed > off. Some of the legal folks are still asking questions and raising > objections, but I think the horse has already left the barn. ;-) Excellent.

You may find the wording of the following somewhat belligerent: I'm just calling it as I see it. Therefore, you may wish to tone down the wording for internal consumption. 1) UNIX looks ugly. I much prefer Unix to UNIX in terms of appearance. This probably explains why UnixWare isn't UNIXWare. 2) Wide existing use of Unix. The term Unix is widely used, both in print, in the Usenet newsgroups, and in other places (such as freely-available software). If the lawyers are going to urge us to use the term UNIX, then we say `Why didn't you urge everybody else to do the same?' In particular, the 25 Years of Unix book by Peter Salus and John Lions' Commentary on V6 talk about the same versions of Unix that we do. 3) We are not violating trademark laws. UNIX is a trademark, and so there are set rules on its use. Unix is not a trademark, and so we are not violating any laws. 4) No license requirements to prevent use of Unix. So far as I can tell, no Western Electric, AT&T or SCO license has any clauses about the term Unix, and not to use it. I could be wrong here, though. 5) The trademark only came into existence around 1977. No 6th Edition files contain the words `UNIX is a trademark of Bell Laboratories'. Therefore, there was no trademark specific term for the software up to this point. 6) Adjective stupidity. UNIX still is an adjective, I believe. This results in expression stupidity. For example, I can say ``6th Edition Unix was released in May 1975.'' However, I have to say ``The 6th Edition of the UNIX operating system was released in May 1975.'' Mind you, this affects SCO's web pages: many of your pages violate this adjectival usage: UnixWare 7 extends the powerful remote management capabilities available in UNIX by providing greater automation and control over local and networked servers and simplifies system administration [unixware/new_features/factsheet.html] What Do I Mean by Unix? ----------------------- In the most general context, Unix is an operating system that has roughly the same system calls, user programs, concepts and ethos of 7th Edition UNIX. Anything which meets POSIX 1003.1 and 1003.2 is a Unix system. This includes Minix, Linux, FreeBSD, UnixWare and Xenix. In another context, the research editions of UNIX, and anything derived from them which is copyright the owner of 7th Edition UNIX (i.e SCO) is also Unix. Where there is confusion, I use the term `real Unix'. Where there is no confusion (e.g on the PUPS Web pages), I just say Unix. Depending on opinion, either 6th Edition or 7th Edition UNIX are the `one true Unix'. I'd say 7th Edition myself. Therefore, what the laywers mean by UNIX is roughly what I mean by `real Unix'. But I don't treat Unix as an adjective.

Probably you would not, but SCO will surely be very, very cautious about this. We are continually in discussions with MS about royalty matters and we would not want to give them any ammunitiion.

I dont understand how you could have only these two. Look again and let me know. I sent only the address-page of a copy of the license. Yes, AU = ancient Unix. We can indeed make AU-0 be yours.

Tasmania is the large island state at the bottom of the Australian mainland, and it's probably 200km across in most directions. Weather was cool to warm: 10'C to 17'C. We stayed in the state's capital, Hobart, for 3 nights. First day we travelled south through rainforest & went through some caves & visited a thermal pool. Second day we trvelled north-east along the coastline, which is drier and windswept. The last day we went to Port Arthur, which was a prison from 1830 to 1880. We had a great time. > My mail services people are now telling me they need > to know your "postal code", which would be whatever is > equivalent to what we call a ZIP code. That's 2600. We call them postcodes. The bit before that is the state's identifier, ACT. > Warren K. Toomey > School of Computer Science, ADFA. [dept, institution] > Northcott drive, Canberra.

Sender: dionj@sco.COM Status: RO X-Status: A Content-Length: 1181 Lines: 29 One of my friends here showed me your article in login. Thanks for your kinds words. Our legal folks have finally begun to see it all with some humor. The VP head of Legal division wants to collaborate on a practical joke on his staff wherein I will propose another new source code license that will be totally outrageous... and see how far it gets before they realize they've been had. One thing you mentioned in the article stimulated my memory of old days at IBM. You said that "having full source code to any OS was unheard of." Interestingly, in the old days, IBM used to provide full source code to MVS (and other products) to customers. This was ca 1966-1970. They distributed the source as assembly listings of the OS build, on tape. So you could indeed have the source code to a (arguably) useful OS. I _think_ that this is how Amdahl and others got the source code to create their rival versions of IBM's systems. I also recall that around 1970, IBM changed the model, or maybe realized that software was going to be a product, not something that came for free with the hardware, and they stopped providing source and unbundled the OS from the hardware.

IBM was both selling and leasing back then. The lease prices were so high that it was about a tossup for customers to choose between leasing for 3 years or purchase with 5-yr depreciation. Of course, the machines usually needed to be upgraded every 2-3 years. I dont recall the exact accounting calculations involved, but I expect IBM made it just about equally painful either way. This new groundswell of sentiment against Microsoft has much in common with the industry feelings toward IBM back then.... the difference being that in the 60s-70s, IBM really did provide a price "umbrella" that kept a lot of other little companies alive, whereas Microsoft is not so benevolent.

So what instrument do Irish music as I know it is usually 2-5 musicians, pretty lively tempo, reels, jigs, etc. very perky music. Junji plays at an Irish pub in San Francisco every week, plus quite a few other gigs here and there. We had a concert here in Santa Cruz, but attendance was poor due to my bad job of promoting/advertising. In Japan, he's pretty well known. His band has made several CD's now. He also plays in a couple of other bands from time to time, Bluegrass and also Japanese Pop stuff. He's very versatile. Interestingly, I also have been written up in some of the fan magazines because I'm his friend - been characterized as some kind of eccentric, old, mountain hippie rich guy. What a laugh. > you play?! I play banjo, and guitar a little, but very badly. Mostly, I am just a "friend of the band". They are very gracious about letting me sit in, but I really need to practice more to feel OK about it. ;-) At least I help them with contract matters. Applying my software legal skills to the music business is an interesting excercise. I like Japan a lot - the people are nice and the country seems to be operating well - everything works. When you go in to a business, they take you seriously and are polite, not like many American businesses. I slightly, in my fantasies, have considered seeking a nice Japanese woman for a wife, if I could find one that would have me. At least I have a hot tub (we call it a spa in CA) - goes over pretty well with Japanese visitors at my place. -Dion From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1998/07/01 Received: from csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au [131.236.20.6]) by henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id LAA03448 for ; Thu, 2 Jul 1998 11:14:12 +1000 (EST) Received: from blackwidow.SOML.CWRU.Edu (blackwidow.SOML.CWRU.Edu [129.22.50.4]) by csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.8.8/8.8.5) with SMTP id LAA23874 for ; Thu, 2 Jul 1998 11:13:57 +1000 (EST) Received: by blackwidow.SOML.CWRU.Edu (5.57/Ultrix3.0-C) id AA12804; Wed, 1 Jul 98 21:14:08 -0400 Date: Wed, 1 Jul 98 21:14:08 -0400 From: msokolov@blackwidow.SOML.CWRU.Edu (Michael Sokolov) Message-Id: <9807020114.AA12804@blackwidow.SOML.CWRU.Edu> To: dionj@sco.com Subject: Re: CWRU Unix source license from ATT/Bell/USL days Cc: hbh@hal.epbi.cwru.edu, wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au Status: RO X-Status: A Content-Length: 1249 Lines: 36 Dear Dion, You wrote: > Case Western Reserve University has a source code license for UNIX System > V Release 3.2 (E-SOFT-00160) executed Sept. 15, 1989.o > > I am getting a copy of this sent to me.

I would have no problem with this if I were doing it for myself, but this is really a University project, not a personal one. (That's what allows me to use hardware officially donated to the University, house it in the University's space, and feed its hungry 19" disk drives with the University's power.) The University obviously can't justify buying a new license just because they have misplaced the paperwork for the existing one. Can I buy it personally? Well, I don't think the University would mind accepting a donation from one of its employees, but I don't think the license is even transferable in this way. Also consider that there is a high probability that our license covers System V, and I would certainly love to be able to play legally with the sources for, say, SunOS and Solaris (which we appear to have somewhere). [Hi, Dion! I know this is hard to believe, but I still haven't been able to get the people at UC Berkeley to even send me a copy of the license they require people to sign. They are un-cooperative beyond belief. Anyway, Warren's group is already freely sharing 2.xBSD tapes among AT&T and SCO licensees, and I see absolutely no reason for 4.xBSD to be different. I guess what we need to do is to convince the people with copies of the different 4.xBSD tapes (I know a few) to contribute them to the PUPS archive. I'm certainly willing to contribute the 4.3BSD tapes I have stumbled across a couple of weeks ago! If we get all 4.xBSD tapes in the PUPS archive, UC Berkeley's a**holes will never collect another $2400 "distribution fee"!] Sincerely, Michael Sokolov Phone: 216-368-6888 (Office) 440-449-0299 (Home) 216-217-2579 (Cellular) ARPA Internet SMTP mail: msokolov@blackwidow.cwru.edu From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1998/07/02 Received: from csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au [131.236.20.6]) by henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id BAA05656 for ; Fri, 3 Jul 1998 01:29:01 +1000 (EST) Received: from sco.sco.COM (sco.sco.COM [132.147.128.9]) by csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.8.8/8.8.5) with SMTP id BAA03423 for ; Fri, 3 Jul 1998 01:28:43 +1000 (EST) Received: from tahoe.pdev.sco.com by sco.sco.COM id aa25171; 2 Jul 98 8:28 PDT Message-ID: <19980702082826.11309@sco.com> Date: Thu, 2 Jul 1998 08:28:26 -0700 From: Dion Johnson To: wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au Subject: Re: Proving the license Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89.1 Organization: SCO Inc.

My spa is outside, with a lovely view of the Glenwood valley. No neighbors anywhere near, so it's comfy. I rarely use it with more than one additional person. ;-) But it can easily hold 4 people, or up to 8 if they are friendly. In Japan, having your own hot tub is a bit of a luxury for many people. The public communal tubs are usually segregated, although not all. Also, I find the Japanese heat their tubs way hotter than I can stand! > Best of luck with the trip.

I could easily imagine living/working in Japan for a year or two, but I'd miss my home in CA after a while. I've lived in my house for 30 years and it's full of toys, tools, memories, etc In any case, I'd assume a Japanese wife would obediently want to go to wherever I live. Japanese women are wonderfully unliberated. Not that I am a total chauvinist pig - I am not - but I do appreciate cooperation. In any case, it's not likely to happen. But it is, as you suggest, a fun fantasy. -Dion From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1998/07/02 Received: from csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au [131.236.20.6]) by henry.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.7.5/8.7.3) with ESMTP id IAA05924 for ; Fri, 3 Jul 1998 08:09:35 +1000 (EST) Received: from sco.sco.COM (sco.sco.COM [132.147.128.9]) by csadfa.cs.adfa.oz.au (8.8.8/8.8.5) with SMTP id IAA05052 for ; Fri, 3 Jul 1998 08:09:15 +1000 (EST) Received: from tahoe.pdev.sco.com by sco.sco.COM id aa15177; 2 Jul 98 15:09 PDT Message-ID: <19980702150902.32471@sco.com> Date: Thu, 2 Jul 1998 15:09:02 -0700 From: Dion Johnson To: wkt@cs.adfa.oz.au Subject: Re: licenses 46-51 Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.89.1 Organization: SCO Inc.

Michael, do you have a PGP key, so I can mail you the access details in a reasonably secure manner.

Sender: dionj@sco.COM Status: RO X-Status: A Content-Length: 2633 Lines: 64 Here is the blurb that I published to the 86open dev group. We just announced at SCO forum that we will indeed support Linux application compatibility in UnixWare. No time fram announced. ALso, we will begin to support selected open-source tools (e.g. gcc and related tools). -Dion Bulletin on status of 86open at SCO ----------------------------------- As we see it, the 86open activity is a research project, conceived in a single meeting and with some ensuing email discussions. It is not a _product_ plan; it is a technical feasibility exploration. It does not necessarily have an end, and it may yet happen. There are other ways of obtaining interoperability of binaries, as we also discussed at the original meeting. When we first discussed it, we acknowledged that emulation was one way that was known to work. As we understood it, there was a consensus that we already have emulation that works. This is not interesting. The interesting idea that Linus put forth was a research proposal for a universal, reference C library with a minimal set of functions that everyone could build; certainly not guaranteed to work, and we did not know if it was feasible. But it _was_ interesting to the audience, so we - the whole group - decided to spend a little time on it. As time went by, the engineers at SCO who chose to work on this found it was harder than expected and we had to admit we either (1) needed help, or (2) would stop spending time on it. Partly due to other pressing issues, #2 happened first. There still may be work done on the idea of a portable, minimal reference libc port, but it's not moving forward at SCO right now. Also, and partly as result of the 86open discussions and activities, SCO has come to believe that we really need to be able to run Linux binaries in the near future. Knowing that the emulation scheme works to around 90% success, maybe better, we are now choosing to invest in making that scheme work. Some of our engineers may yet return to the original libc project, or they may not. They are volunteers and make their own choices, but SCO is not going to put company time/money into that project at this time, except to the extent that we are happy to provide SCO software to anyone who wants to experiment. In the coming months, SCO will be improving the capabilities of the lxrun emulator. -Dion L.

I'm glad it hasn't died out yet. Lots of activity around Linux right now. We have a bunch of Linux people wanting to meet with SCO and see how we can work together.

The ocean got 10 Deg.F warmer than usual (up to 65 F.) so it was warm enough to swim with no wetsuit! Now we are said to be in a "La Nina" which will also bring strange weather. I just signed up with a contractor to put a new roof on my house. Hope he gets on it before it starts raining too much... -Dion On Wed, Oct 07, 1998 at 01:54:32PM +1000, Warren Toomey wrote: > Hi Dion, I've just received AU-77 to AU-82.

Yes there are many parts of USA where population is very thin. The high desert areas of Nevada, Utah are good examples. You see it very clearly from the air... miles and miles of rocky badlands. There are also some areas in Arizone, New Mexico, and Montana that are similar. Even better examples in Canada, but it's not desert, although the Arctic and Subarctic Tundra is like a desert in some ways.

I'm still trying to understand SCO's new deal with IBM, this "Monterey" project... new 64-bit OS for AIX and UnixWare. Looks like a major good deal for SCO. Our weather has been cool and pleasant.

I have a tricky legal question, and I don't know if you/SCO are allowed to answer it, but anyway.... As you know, a lot of software released by UCB in their BSDs in the 80s and 90s was code contributed from elsewhere. Obviously (to us), some of this code was derived from AT&T/USL code, and other things (like the TCP/IP code, the virtual memory, the fast file system, and applications like Sendmail) were not derived from AT&T/USL code at all. Now, I have a couple of contributors to 2.xBSD and 4.xBSD who are annoyed because they are unsure of the legal status of their code. They believe that one of the terms of the UCB/USL agreement is that _all_ BSD releases prior to 4.4-Lite are _wholly_ tainted, and so their own code is now tainted. Is there any way that SCO can clear up this legal ambiguity? What I am asking for is: can these people publicaly release the old versions of their software (which happened to be bundled in the BSDs) without being sued? I know that the details of the UCB/USL agreement are confidential, but this these contributors. If you can help in any way, I'd certainly appreciate it!

The trickiness in this problem is because some of it can't be revealed. Here's the story: UCB brought out the 2nd Networking release (aka Net2) in 1991. This was similar to a normal BSD release (i.e lots of applications, libraries, and kernel code), but UCB believed that they had only released the files not contaminated by AT&T code. In 1992, USL files suit against UCB, alleging that parts of Net2 affected their intellectual property rights, and trade secrets. In 1994, the suit was dismissed in an out of court agreement between the two parties. Here is (part of) what was publically released: The settlement restricts further use and distri- bution of certain files in the Second Networking Release and requires that certain files in 4.4 BSD-Lite include a USL copyright notice. In addition to providing several enhancements, the new 4.4 BSD-Lite Release will replace most of the restricted files and incorporates all the agreed-upon modifications and notices. Thus, 4.4 BSD-Lite will not require a license from nor payment of royalties to USL. The University strongly recommends that 4.4 BSD-Lite be substi- tuted for Net2. Although it has denied the University's claims, USL has also agreed to affix the University's copyright notice to certain files distributed with future releases of the UNIX system and to give credit to the University for material derived from BSD releases which have been included in the UNIX system. Now things get thicker. It is known that both parties signed non-disclosure on the actual agreement. This means that the actual list of `restricted' Net2 files cannot be released by either party. The effect that this has is to prevent anything in Net2: applications, libraries, contributed programs, from being publically released, in case it contains one of more of the `restricted' Net2 files. Because the list of restricted files is unknown, we can't take the risk of using anything in Net2. > > Now, I have a couple of contributors to 2.xBSD and 4.xBSD who are annoyed > > because they are unsure of the legal status of their code. They believe > > that one of the terms of the UCB/USL agreement is that _all_ BSD releases >> prior to 4.4-Lite are _wholly_ tainted, and so their own code is now tainted. The theory goes like this: + One of my files/programs was released as part of Net2 + I cannot prove that it is free of AT&T code, because I don't have the list of tainted files. + All prior and subsequent releases of my files/programs are thus tarred with the same uncertainty > Do they see ATT or USL copyrights in any of the sources they are > distributing? If so, please send me a list of the modules in which > such copyrights appear, and a few of the sample headers that show > date/time/copyright/etc The problem is that none of the Net2 files had AT&T/USL copyright notices on them: UCB thought that they were taint-free. However, the agreement marks some of these files as tainted. We just don't know which. > > What I am asking for is: can these people publicaly release the old > > versions of their software (which happened to be bundled in the BSDs) > > without being sued? > I would say they are quite safe, but that's just my opinion, not an official > SCO "permission". > See what you can find out from your colleagues, these developers. > -Dion The developers are just concerned: they don't know where they stand wrt their code. I've had some email back from Keith Bostic (from UCB), which is attached. Thanks again, Warren > Now, I have a couple of contributors to 2.xBSD and 4.xBSD who are annoyed > because they are unsure of the legal status of their code. They believe > that one of the terms of the UCB/USL agreement is that _all_ BSD releases > prior to 4.4-Lite are _wholly_ tainted, and so their own code is now tainted. This isn't the case. First, because Berkeley did not require contribution of copyright, any software contributor retained all rights in their code that they had before the contribution. So, any contributor can do anything they want with the code they contributed. It would be impossible for any agreement between AT&T and UC Berkeley to affect rights held by the original authors in their original work. That said, after the code was contributed, Berkeley could have mixed proprietary code with the contributed code, in which case the files as released by Berkeley could be tainted. (It's pretty unlikely, but it's possible.) Reviewing the copyright of the file as released by Berkeley should resolve that question. If the copyright, as released by Berkeley, is clean, then the file is clean. There are a very, very few exceptions -- the 9 files or so that Berkeley removed from the 4.4BSD-Lite, described in the letter that Berkeley sent out subsequent to the AT&T settlement -- other than for those files in that particular release, the copyright should settle the question as to whether the BSD release of the file was tainted. > What I am asking for is: can these people publicaly release the old > versions of their software (which happened to be bundled in the BSDs) > without being sued? I am assuming that they can prove their code is > untainted. There are two forms of this question: 1: Can I release foo.c, which I gave a copy of to Berkeley for inclusion in the BSD releases? 2: Can I release foo.c, as found in a Berkeley release? The answer to #1 is that the author's rights to the software are entirely unaffected by whether or not the author contributed a copy to Berkeley for inclusion in 4BSD. If the software was "free" before contribution, it's free after contribution, if it was "tainted" before contribution, it's tainted after contribution. The answer to #2 is as described above -- look at the copyright notice in the BSD release, make sure it's not one of the 9 files from that single release, and then make the decision. --keith From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1999/05/18 Received: from csadfa.cs.adfa.edu.au (csadfa.cs.adfa.edu.au [131.236.21.6]) by henry.cs.adfa.edu.au (8.9.2/8.9.1) with ESMTP id BAA03870 for ; Wed, 19 May 1999 01:39:56 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from dionj@sco.COM) Received: from sco.sco.COM (sco.sco.COM [132.147.128.9]) by csadfa.cs.adfa.edu.au (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id BAA19434 for ; Wed, 19 May 1999 01:39:53 +1000 (EST) Received: from tahoe.pdev.sco.COM(132.147.193.8) via SMTP by sco.sco.COM, id smtpdAAAa000ZI; Tue May 18 08:34:08 1999 Message-ID: <19990518082909.47946@sco.com> Date: Tue, 18 May 1999 08:29:09 -0700 From: Dion Johnson To: wkt@cs.adfa.edu.au Subject: Re: More AU Licenses References: <199905180215.MAA03069@henry.cs.adfa.edu.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.88e Sender: dionj@sco.COM Status: RO Content-Length: 930 Lines: 31 I asked Mona (our admin) and Davidey about it.

The popularity of Linux is not that bad for SCO... remember that every Windows NT user won over to Linux is also a prospect for SCO's Unix (for one reason or another). I can explain the value of SCO to a Linux user a lot better than to an NT user. We should be differentiating ourselves on quality and support, along with some high-end special features. I think we can stay ahead on the technology curve if we want to (i.e., our executives decide to invest in that). But I am not sure that we have the sense to realize that complete, utter quality is a nonnegotiable requirement for serious users, especially developers and technical users. I see lots of contradictory news... but the SCO good news stories dont seem to get much press play. Still, we've done very well in the last two quarters. -Dion From mairix@mairix Mon Jan 1 12:34:56 1970 X-source-folder: /home/wkt/Mail_archive/1999/08/15 Received: from csadfa.cs.adfa.edu.au (csadfa-21.cs.adfa.edu.au [131.236.21.6]) by henry.cs.adfa.edu.au (8.9.2/8.9.1) with ESMTP id DAA02763 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 03:59:42 +1000 (EST) (envelope-from dionj@sco.COM) Received: from sco.sco.COM (sco.sco.COM [132.147.128.9]) by csadfa.cs.adfa.edu.au (8.9.0/8.9.0) with SMTP id DAA21313 for ; Mon, 16 Aug 1999 03:59:40 +1000 (EST) Received: from tahoe.pdev.sco.COM(132.147.193.8) via SMTP by sco.sco.COM, id smtpdAAAa003yR; Sun Aug 15 11:01:36 1999 Date: Sun, 15 Aug 1999 10:55:23 -0700 From: Dion Johnson To: wkt@cs.adfa.edu.au, David Eyes Cc: christi@sco.COM, eileenm@sco.COM Subject: Re: UCDavis' UNIX Licenses Message-ID: <19990815105523.A28179@sco.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii X-Mailer: Mutt 0.95.6i Sender: dionj@sco.COM Status: RO Content-Length: 2247 Lines: 61 Warren, The free* stuff is now handled by my friend and colleague David Eyes.

I think it would be useful if Theo could go on record respecting his intentions relative to his wanting to see source vis-a-vis his role as a BSD project leader. Aside from just being merely interesting and informative from our point of view, it would read in to the record the scope of his intended use. It is possible that there would be uses, in violation of the license, that we would want to take steps to discourage, but I'm assuming for the moment that Theo is motivated by intellectual/professional curiosity.

I can't imagine you guys would sue OpenBSD, but I guess Theo remembers the AT&T/USL lawsuit, which of course was based on 32V taintedness.

I've attached a PDF of the license letter hereto. Feel free to propogate it as you see fit. I apologize that this has taken so long. We do not have a well regulated archive of these ancient releases, so we must depend upon you UNIX enthusiasts, historians, and original authors to help the community of interested parties figure out exactly what is available, where, and how. Many thanks to Warren Toomey, of PUPS, and to Caldera's Bill Broderick, director of licensing services here. Both of these gentlemen were instrumental in making this happen. And thanks to our CEO, Ransom Love, whose vision for Caldera International prescribes cooperation and mutual respect for the open source communities. Of course, there are thousands of other people who should be acknowledged. I regret I do not have time or wisdom to make a list of them all, but maybe someone does, or has. Anyway, here it is. Feel free to write to us if you want to understand more about how/why Caldera International has released this code, or you have any other comments that we should hear. Sincerely, Dion L. Johnson II - dionj@caldera.com Product Manager and one of many open source enthusiasts in Caldera Intl.

I don't have copies of those licenses but they clearly are intended to permit teaching of concepts and techniques. =20 Don't forget Sun was allowing all kinds of licenses for Sys V.4, = (Solaris) their version, which was licensed from ATT.

There are of course a number of other = people who know (knew) about the ATT, Novell, USL, SCO, and Caldera licensing = over the years.
