●● Has SCO Just Kicked Darl McBride or Did He Quit?

Summary: SCO says goodbye to Darl McBride

A major milestone is approached (and even reached) in the SCO saga now that the monster behind the lawsuits against Linux is leaving. It’s not entirely clear if the Trustee has something to do with it or maybe it's the fraud allegations. From SCO’s filing (earlier today):

On October 14, 2009, The SCO Group, Inc., (“SCO”, “us”, “we”or the “Company”) announced that the Company has eliminated the Chief Executive Officer and President positions and consequently terminated Darl McBride. The current management team comprised of Chief Operating Officer, Jeff Hunsaker, Chief Financial Officer, Ken Nielsen and General Counsel, Ryan Tibbitts, along with the rest of the management team will continue to work closely with the Chapter 11 Trustee and his advisors.

Press coverage has yet to come. █

“On the same day that CA blasted SCO, Open Source evangelist Eric Raymond revealed a leaked email from SCO’s strategic consultant Mike Anderer to their management. The email details how, surprise surprise, Microsoft has arranged virtually all of SCO’s financing, hiding behind intermediaries like Baystar Capital.”
