Notice of Agenda for SCO Bankruptcy Hearing on the 27th
The Notice of Agenda [PDF] is up, letting us know what will be handled on the 27th in bankruptcy court. All that is on the schedule is the motion [PDF] by Edward Cahn, SCO's Chapter 11 trustee, to approve SCO board members issuing some stock options to themselves after they forgot to timely do so, without first seeking approval or apparently even telling Mr. Cahn first. The story is they voted in August to issue them, but then they forgot to actually do so for some months.
I don't know why they bother with all the paperwork. In bankruptcy court in Delaware, the corporate debtor always wins and creditors get nothing, from what we've seen, or at least 99% of the time. They seem to like it that way. Approving this motion ... well, it sticks in my craw, for all the reasons I painstakingly outlined when SCO filed this beaut of a motion, mainly because of SCO's 2004 Change of Control Agreement, which I believe means this motion will drain money from the company, not pull it in, when it comes to the end of the almost impenetrable plan, but I'm not the one who gets to decide.

Text::PDF::TTFont(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Text::PDF::TTFont(3pm)

NAME

       Text::PDF::TTFont - Inherits from Text::PDF::Dict and represents a TrueType font within a PDF file.

DESCRIPTION

       A font consists of two primary parts in a PDF file: the header and the font descriptor. Whilst two fonts may share font descriptors, they
       will have their own header dictionaries including encoding and widhth information.

INSTANCE VARIABLES

       There are no instance variables beyond the variables which directly correspond to entries in the appropriate PDF dictionaries.

METHODS

       Text::PDF::TTFont->new($parent, $fontfname, $pdfname, %opts)

       Creates a new font resource for the given fontfile. This includes the font descriptor and the font stream. The $pdfname is the name by
       which this font resource will be known throught a particular PDF file.

       All font resources are full PDF objects.

       $t->width($text)

       Measures the width of the given text according to the widths in the font

       $t->trim($text, $len)

       Trims the given text to the given length (in per mille em) returning the trimmed text

       $t->out_text($text)

       Indicates to the font that the text is to be output and returns the text to be output

       $f->copy

       Copies the font object excluding the name, widths and encoding, etc.

TITLE

       Text::PDF::TTIOString - internal IO type handle for string output for font embedding. This code is ripped out of IO::Scalar, to save the
       direct dependence for so little. See IO::Scalar for details
