This is a much awaited reaction against the SCO claim from one of the most
prominent Linux distributors. It would have been a much stronger event if
other major distributors (Mandrake, SuSE, &c.) would have pitched in the
legal action.

The Open Source community must not take the SCO situation lightly, and
dismiss them with a brush of the hand, since even such an outrageous claim
might be granted validity in the court of laws, and constitute a very
serious threat to the OS comunity in general, and to Linux in particular.
