Novell's Daubert Motions: We Finally Get to Read 3 of SCO's Experts' Reports

We finally get to read SCO's experts' reports, three of them, the ones from Dr. Christine A. Botosan, Dr. Gary Pisano, and G. Gervaise Davis III, because Novell has attached them as Exhibit A to each memorandum in support of their three motions for Daubert hearings, seeking to disqualify each expert's testimony. I say finally because the reports were written in 2007. Haven't I always told you that sooner or later, it all comes to light? It's what I love about litigation.
I don't know if I should describe the reports as absurdly fascinating or fascinatingly absurd. Their version of UNIX history and the history of SCO's litigation is an alternate universe far from any I know or think of as reality. If I may paraphrase the first Magistrate Judge in the SCO v. IBM litigation so many years ago, is this all SCO's got?

IPX_CMD(8) System Manager's Manual IPX_CMD(8) NAME
ipx_cmd - bridge between Novell's SCMD driver and local IPX network SYNOPSIS
ipx_cmd -A server name [ -l local interface name ] DESCRIPTION
ipx_cmd moves packets from tapN to server and vice versa. It is something like IPX Tunnel, but it uses Novell Netware 5 server Compatibil- ity Mode Driver (AKA Migration Agent) on the other end of wire. You must first configure your kernel tapN device with IPX EthernetII frame and with network number set up on server (you can use kernel autodetection). OPTIONS
-A server name This is IP name of compatibility mode server. You can use DNS name or dotted quad to specify server address. -l local interface name This allows you to specify, which of your IP addresses should be used as IP address of client side of CMD driver. You must configure your tapN device with hardware address 7E:01:AA:BB:CC:DD, where AA:BB:CC:DD is your IP address in hexa. EXAMPLE
If you are on server platan.vc.cvut.cz (147.32.240.81) and your migration agent runs on server boris.vc.cvut.cz, you can configure your system with: insmod ethertap ifconfig tap0 hw ether 7E:01:93:20:F0:51 up ipx_interface add -p tap0 EtherII ipx_cmd -A boris.vc.cvut.cz -l 147.32.240.81 & BUGS
This program was written to satisfy my own needs and should be really improved. At least it should configure tap interface itself. AUTHOR
