Novell's Reply in Support of Motion to Set Aside Judgment

Novell has filed its Reply to SCO's Opposition to Novell's Motion to Set Aside Judgment:
01/22/2010 - 619 - REPLY to Response to Motion re 608 MOTION to Set Aside Judgment filed by Defendant Novell, Inc.. (Brennan, Sterling) (Entered: 01/22/2010)

This is the motion to set aside Judge Dale Kimball's ruling that Novell is not entitled to any of the SCOsource money from Microsoft or from Linux end users like EV1, a decision based on his ruling that Novell did not transfer to SCO the Unix copyrights. Now that the ownership of the copyrights is back on the front burner and will go to trial in March, Novell would like the contingent decision also back up for grabs. Novell would like its 95%, and of course SCO would like to hang on to it. Not that SCO is any good at hanging on to money, judging from its history. SCO's argument was that Novell failed to appeal this point, so it's too late now. Not so fast, Novell replies. Rule 60(b)(5) "authorizes relief from a judgment based on a ruling that has been reversed even when the judgment was not appealed", and SCO admits that. And SCO's cited cases "are irrelevant", Novell writes.
Hey. It wouldn't be the first time.

NAME
mozroots - Download and import trusted root certificates from Mozilla's LXR into Mono's certificate store SYNOPSIS
mozroots [--import [--machine] [--sync | --ask | --ask-add | --ask-remove]] DESCRIPTION
This program downloads the trusted root certificates from the Mozilla LXR web site into the Mono certificate store. Mono by default does not ship with any default certificates and allows the user to pick its trusted certificates. The mozroots command will bring the Mozilla certificates into your local machine. OPTIONS
--import Import the certificates into the trust store. --sync Synchronize (add/remove) the trust store with the certificates. Synchronize is useful for new Mono installations (no roots) and for automated updates (no user confirmation for addition or removal). --ask Always confirm before adding or removing trusted certificates. Note: The initial import will likely add about 100 new trusted root certificates into your store. You'll have to answer yes to every one of them if this option is specified. --ask-add Always confirm before adding a new trusted certificate. Note: The initial import will likely add about 100 new trusted root cer- tificates into your store. You'll have to answer yes to every one of them if this option is specified. --ask-remove Always confirm before removing an existing trusted certificate. ADVANCED OPTIONS
--url url Specify an alternative URL for downloading the trusted certificates (LXR source format). This should only be useful for testing or if the Mozilla's LXR web site address is changed. It can also be used to cache a local copy of the LXR file into your local intranet. --file name Do not download from LXR but use the specified file. This is useful if many computers have to download the same file from the Inter- net. This way you can keep a local copy on a file server (and minimize network traffic). --pkcs7 name Export the certificates into a PKCS#7 file. This is useful for debugging purpose or for re-importing the same list into other soft- ware. --machine Import the certificate in the machine trust store. The default is to import all trusted root certificates into the current user store. --quiet Limit console output to errors and confirmations messages. This is useful when scripting. EXAMPLES
After the initial Mono installation you'll have no trusted roots certificates pre-installed. Neither will you have some root test certifi- cates installed (your own or the ones provided by using setreg ). In this case the simplest thing to do, if you want to trust all those certificates, is to import and synchronize. $ mozroots --import --sync Mozilla Roots Importer - version 1.1.9.0 Download and import trusted root certificates from Mozilla's LXR.

Importing certificates into user store... 93 new root certificates were added to your trust store. Import process completed. If you created some test certificates (e.g. for using SSL/TLS with XSP) and/or if your enterprise requires some additional root certifi- cates (e.g. intranet) then you may want to skip the removal part of the process. You can do this by asking for a removal confirmation (--ask-remove option) and answer no when prompted. $ mozroots --import --ask-remove Mozilla Roots Importer - version 1.1.9.0 Download and import trusted root certificates from Mozilla's LXR.

Importing certificates into user store... 93 new root certificates were added to your trust store. 2 previously trusted certificates were not part of the update. Issuer: CN=Mono Test Root Agency Serial number: 69-B0-E1-4F-88-6E-C7-85-48-0E-74-91-38-76-F4-28 Valid from 9/1/2003 11:55:48 AM to 12/31/2039 1:59:59 PM Thumbprint SHA-1: EF-26-C2-28-11-3F-79-ED-9D-EC-3F-3B-D5-7A-26-F2-7C-9F-FA-63 Thumbprint MD5: AE-19-3E-64-36-21-F2-A4-8B-69-38-CA-64-4B-2E-62 Are you sure you want to remove this certificate ? no You can still use the synchronize option (--sync) if you have activated the default test roots certificate on your system. They will be removed at the end of the synchronization process but you can quickly add them back with the setreg tool. $ setreg 1 true Another option to ease updates is to synchronize your machine trust store (using the --machine option) and keep your customized (test) cer- tificates in your personal store (or vice versa). Note that every user on this computer will be trusting all the newly imported certifi- cates. $ mozroots --import --machine --sync Mozilla Roots Importer - version 1.1.9.0 Download and import trusted root certificates from Mozilla's LXR.

Importing certificates into user store... 94 new root certificates were added to your trust store. Import process completed. Once the initial import is complete the number of changes (additions or removals) is generally very low. In this case it makes sense to know about any changes (i.e. ask for confirmation). No confirmation will be required if no changes are made to your trust store. $ mozroots --import --ask Mozilla Roots Importer - version 1.1.9.0 Download and import trusted root certificates from Mozilla's LXR.
