Copyright Claims and DMCA Notices
In late December 2003, new developments involving copyright claims emerged.
Novell registered their claim to the copyright of original UNIX source code, effectively challenging SCO's registration of the same code.
SCO Group claimed in a press release to have sent DMCA notification letters alleging copyright infringement. Alleged copies of these letters were posted online. The letters give the names of 65 files in the Linux source code tree which supposedly incorporate "copyrighted binary interfaces". Linus Torvalds then posted a rebuttal on Groklaw.

Famous quotes containing the word claims:
“Before anything else, we need a new age of Enlightenment. Our present political systems must relinquish their claims on truth, justice and freedom and have to replace them with the search for truth, justice, freedom and reason.”
—Friedrich Dürrenmatt (1921–1990)
