:You can't. A provision of the settlement agreement was that none of
:the signatories could publish the settlement agreement. If I remember
:correctly, Chris Demetriou was the signatory for NetBSD, Rob Kolstad
:was the signatory for BSD/OS and I was the signatory for FreeBSD. The
:agreement was pretty clear on the fact that by signing the agreement
:and putting the mutual lawsuits behind us, Novell agreed that anyone
:based on 4.4Lite2 going forward would be free and clear.

You know, this latest SCO shenanigan has really got me angry. Angry
enough to take action... so I went ahead and shorted some of their
stock.
Now I feel much better! When they loose in the end (1-2 year time
frame) and their stock goes poof I'll treat the Bay Area BSD crowd to a
big dinner with the proceeds :-)
