We agree that they weren't obliged to release anything.  However, they let us
believe that they would release utility sources.  If they changed their minds,
that's their right, but many people feel they were deceived.

Some of us (myself included) downloaded OD to try it out so that we could make
a decision whether to buy.  If Caldera wish to have my business, they have to
keep me happy.  I'm not happy.  But if enough people complain, perhaps they
will pay attention, and will make me happy again ;-)
