SCO's Nov. 8 Bankruptcy Hearing Cancelled/Postponed Until Dec. 1

Well, knock me over with a feather. I surely didn't expect this. SCO's hearing in bankruptcy court in Delaware set for November 8 has been cancelled/postponed. Here's the notice in its entirety:
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE that the hearing scheduled in the above-captioned case for November 8, 2010 has been cancelled. The next hearing is currently scheduled for December 1, 2010 at 10:30 a.m.
I have no idea why. Maybe they can't find a buyer? Or they can't figure out how to get past the objections. Or it could be as innocent as schedule impasse, illness. We'll have to wait to find out. No doubt we will in good time. I just hope they don't postpone until after Christmas, as that holiday never appears in SCO's calendar until after the fact.
Actually, the closing was set for November 30th. This isn't a trick, is it? That would be so out of character for the noble SCO.

NAME
btsco -- Bluetooth SCO Audio SYNOPSIS
btsco* at bthub? audio* at audiobus? DESCRIPTION
The btsco driver provides support for Bluetooth SCO Audio devices through the audio(4) driver. The btsco driver must be configured at run time with the btdevctl(8) program. The following properties are used by the btsco driver during autoconfiguration: local-bdaddr Local device address. remote-bdaddr Remote device address. service-name The btsco driver matches the 'HF' and 'HSET' services. For the 'HF' service, the btsco device will, on open(2), listen for incom- ing connections from the remote device. Otherwise, btsco will attempt to initiate a connection to the remote device. rfcomm-channel This integer value is not used directly, but will be stored and passed via the BTSCO_INFO ioctl as below: SCO connections require a baseband connection between the two devices before they can be created. The btsco driver does not create this, but can provide information to facilitate an application setting up a control channel prior to use, via the BTSCO_INFO ioctl(2) call on the mixer device, which returns a btsco_info structure as follows: #include <dev/bluetooth/btsco.h> struct btsco_info { bdaddr_t laddr; /* controller bdaddr */ bdaddr_t raddr; /* headset bdaddr */ uint8_t channel; /* RFCOMM channel */ int vgs; /* mixer index speaker */ int vgm; /* mixer index mic */ }; #define BTSCO_INFO _IOR('b', 16, struct btsco_info) The btsco driver can be configured to act in Connect or Listen mode. In Connect mode, the btsco driver will initiate a connection to the remote device on an open(2) call, whereas in Listen mode, open(2) will block until the remote device initiates the connection.

The btsco driver was written for NetBSD 4.0 by Iain Hibbert under the sponsorship of Itronix, Inc. BUGS
btsco takes no notice of the HCI Voice Setting in the Bluetooth controller, and this must be 0x0060 (the default) as alternate values are currently unsupported. BSD
