[edit] 20070804 fixup
Hi. I just fixed a few names, and (it's Allan) added a link for me (vanity is a monkey).
Writing is a bit scattered; not sure I would do much better. Some of the positions were not translated across the Atlantic, but I din't think I cared much for positions then.
The US team was Allan, Alex Sack, and Walt Croom; Sergey was also assigned to the group. Not sure if it's logical to name the team of a project that was implicitly canceled on the announcement of the lawsuit.

Since this document seems to outline who did what and who was responsible for the technology, I think it is important to document that transitionary phase between where I began and you took over. Alex, Sergy et al were part of the UNIX architecture breifing and there input to the project should be noted.
Should we detail what the differences between linux and unix versions were ? Should we outline the abilities of the toolsets ? and should we give any other actual 'real' information here ???? Also, do you have a copy of the Doom on a disk ? I don't, but I do still have all the Incredible Technology releases and the installer environment. The old CandP machine did have some old stuff of mine from the SCO days. Still know where that is ?
Take care - see you in the UK some time !

[edit] I believe this project is notable.
Just read the Linux, SCO-Linux controversies, and finally, the Timeline of SCO-Linux controversies. This project is notable because it shows that even the SCO projects were affected by the lawsuit. Now what about the rival projects of other vendors that Caldera SCO was trying to squeeze? Clearly, they would have been affected had Caldera SCO prevailed, as was possible in 2003. There would have been a multi-billion dollar impact on rival companies had SCO Caldera prevailed. --Ancheta Wis 00:29, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Noteable
Yes, I think this is notable.
SCaldera had a perfect place in the market to take on Linux and go far further than RedHat or SuSE with OpenLinux. Smallfoot should have had a really strong influence in the market place - had it not gotten killed off.
Of course, its also the ONLY SCO PRODUCT to have both UNIX and LINUX versions.

[edit] Heh....
Looks like some of this has been ripped from my Linked In page by enthusiastic wikiphiles !
