Okay, but what is your point?  I never claimed to own ALL of DRDOS or
Open Linux.  I don't want to sell it, or change it.  I just stated that
I wasn't sure if I liked Caldera buying 2 divisions of SCO.

When most people talk about buying software, they mean the package, not
the rights to buy/sell/modify the code to all copies.
