Hmm. #Xinuos, who purchased the assets of The #SCO Group, moved to US Virgin Islands in 2019, in a technology focus zone jointly sponsored by the #USVI government and the territorial university.
Serious question: are (SCO) #OpenServer 6 and #Unixware 7 getting any actual development, or are they just patching enough so they can milk them for a few more years before the last large customers move on to something else?
I had the impression that during the “IBM stole our IP and put it into Linux” suits that both Unixware and SCO #Unix (OpenServer) were mostly on life support after Caldera bought them from old SCO and renamed itself as “The SCO Group”, and that the company was grasping for straws. -

Wow. #sonTwo, who turned from the #Unix administration (local college course taught using #Linux and #FreeBSD) and C++ (local college course using Windows IDE) to theater and photography when he was in high school, suddenly finds himself needing to become acquainted with #JavaScript. -
