Here's the original
Red Hat Complaint [PDF], filed back in early August of 2003, as text.
I'll call that the Neolithic Period of SCO'S litigation wars against Linux, and back then, we at Groklaw had to have a volunteer go and pick up the complaint from the US District Court in Wilmington, Delaware in person, because the courts then were not yet digitized, then scan the pages in as PDFs, then another volunteer, IIRC, then had to make all the pages into one PDF, and then for unknown reasons I never did a text version. Exhaustion probably.
Also back then, it was Groklaw's prehistoric period too, and I had no idea Groklaw would end up the public's permanent record of the
SCO v. Linux lawsuits. Anyway, we just realized we needed to do it, and thanks to four more volunteers -- both new ones and some from the original group, still here, still helping out -- here is the text version at last. I hope you enjoy it, because a lot of volunteers make up the warp and weft of this text version.
It's very timely, because this is the complaint that SCO has
asked the bankruptcy court to rule is disallowed and Red Hat has responded vigorously. I expect a real battle on this one, as Red Hat's legal team are some serious dudes, so I have restored the
Red Hat Timeline link to our main menu, so you can find it easily as we go forward.
