SCO v. Novell, Day 9, Thursday, March 18, 2010 - as text

This is the transcript as text of day nine of the SCO v. Novell trial that began on Monday, March 8, 2010 and ran for 15 days, Monday through Friday, for three weeks, with the Hon. Ted Stewart presiding. That would make it Thursday, March 18, and the witnesses that day were Christine Botosan back on the stand for a second day, followed by Lawrence Gasparro, Phillip Langer and Gregory Pettit.Here is Groklaw's eyewitness report from the trial for that day.</p>
I noticed something significant in the Botosan testimony. Under cross examination by Novell's lawyer Sterling Brennan, she admits she didn't know Red Hat had filed litigation against SCO. Not only is that hard to accept, given that she also testifies on this day that she read most all of SCO's 10Ks and 10Qs from 2003 to 2007, all of which mention it prominently, but it occurs to me that this litigation belonged in her but-for world calculations. The lawsuit wasn't about the copyrights, where Novell ownership claims would have any effect. It was about things like tortious interference with business, false advertising, and defamation, all of which are independent of any copyright ownership issues. Yet, she claims never to have heard about it.

NAME
Date::Manip::ConfigFile - sample config file DESCRIPTION
Date::Manip is a highly configurable module. Many of the options can be set in a config file. This document includes a sample config file. The config file consists of three sections. The first section is config variables. This is described more fully in the Date::Manip::Config document. The second section is the holiday definition section. The third section is the event definition section. These are both described more fully in the Date::Manip::Holidays document. SAMPLE CONFIG FILE
The sample config file below works for newer versions of Date::Manip. Some of the config variables may change, or be deprecated, and some may not work with earlier versions of Date::Manip, so it is strongly suggested that you check out the documentation for the version of Date::Manip you are using to confirm any of the config variables you want to include. ################################ # CONFIG VARIABLES ################################ # See Date::Manip::Config man page for a description of all # config variables. # To include configuration information from additional # config files: ConfigFile = /path/to/another/config/file ConfigFile = /path/to/another/config/file2 # For handling other languages Language = English DateFormat = US Encoding = # Set the current timezone: SetDate = now,America/New_York # Set the work work WorkWeekBeg = 1 WorkWeekEnd = 5 WorkDay24Hr = 0 WorkDayBeg = 08:00 WorkDayEnd = 17:00 TomorrowFirst = 1 # Misc. variables YYtoYYYY = 89 FirstDay = 1 Jan1Week1 = 0 Printable = 0 DefaultTime = midnight RecurRange = none ################################ # HOLIDAYS ################################ # See the Date::Manip::Holidays man page for a description of # this section. *HOLIDAYS # FEDERAL HOLIDAYS ################## # You can express New Year's Day as the actual day (Jan 1) # or the observed day (Jan 1 or the nearest week day). # You can't include BOTH because once a day is marked as # a holiday, a second definition will treat it the same # as a weekend and choose another day to assign the holiday # to (so there would be two days designated as New Years). # Jan 1 = New Year's Day 1*1:0:1:0:0:0*DWD = New Year's Day (observed) # Two different ways to defined MLK day third Monday in Jan = Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday # 1*1:3:1:0:0:0 = Martin Luther King Jr.'s Birthday # Observed by federal employees in Washington D.C. # Jan 20 = Inauguration day third Monday in Feb = Washington's Birthday last Monday in May = Memorial Day 1st Monday in Sep = Labor Day second Monday in Oct = Columbus Day # Jul 4 = Independence Day 1*7:0:4:0:0:0*DWD = Independence Day # 11/11 = Veterans Day 1*11:0:11:0:0:0*DWD = Veteran's Day # To define both Thanksgiving and the day after, use the # following two lines: fourth Thu in Nov = Thanksgiving 1*11:4:4:0:0:0*FD1 = Day after Thanksgiving # Dec 25 = Christmas 1*12:0:25:0:0:0*DWD = Christmas # SAMPLE HOLIDAYS ################## # You can define a one-time-only holiday by specifying # the day and year. 6/2/1999 = A special test holiday for 1999 ################################ # EVENTS ################################ # See the Date::Manip::Holidays man page for a description of # this section. *EVENTS 2000-02-01 = Event01 2000-02-01-12:00:00 = Event02 02-01 = Event03 02-01 12:00:00 = Event04 1*2:0:3:13:00:00 = Event05 2000-02-05 10:00:00 ; 2000-02-05 10:59:59 = Event06 2000-02-05 ; 2000-02-06 = Event07 02-05 ; 02-06 = Event08 2000-02-07 10:00:00 ; 0:0:0:0:3:0:0 = Event09 02-07 10:00:00 ; 0:0:0:0:4:0:0 = Event10 1*2:0:7:10:00:00 ; 0:0:0:0:5:0:0 = Event11 SEE ALSO
