  SCO  argues  that  'derivative' software libre works devalue its intellectual property. Which is a 
  great  argument,  until you remember that most of the intellectual labor was made by parties other 
  than  SCO,  and  where plagiarism took place - as it undoubtedly did - the 'plagiarists' had every 
  legal  entitlement  to  do  so.  The  SCO  Group  has  a  defensible case if it can prove that its 
  commercial  prospects  were  harmed  by  infringement. It has yet to show an example of this. Then 
  again,  it  doesn't  have to: what matters is how effectively it can convince a court, rather than 
  the peanut gallery.
