I know many folks who have worked for SCO over the years having met Doug Michels first in 1984 or 1985 in Fort Worth when I was on the board of directors of TCBUG (Tandy Computer Business Users Group), and a SCO Reseller since 1987 or so. There are still some good people on the technical side at SCO, mostly in Santa Cruz, who remember what's gone on, but management doesn't seem to be listening to them. I don't know many (any) of the original Caldera Linux folks who're still with the company, the best of the German development team having gone over to SuSE. Doug Michels, co-founder of SCO, has stated publically that he's totally against what SCO is doing now.
