What David said was:


    If you want to make it a business to sell copies of Readline with a
    _written_ _guarantee_ that the recipient may link each copy to
    proprietary software of his own choosing and redistribute the
    combined product for profit, and that you will reimburse him for any
    damages resulting from the FSF suing him for compliance, go ahead.

    According to you, it should be a sure-fire income opportunity for
    you. Without such a guarantee, your offer is worthless.

What this has to do with SCO I can't fathom.
But that what you say is worthless, that doesn't come as much of a
surprise... given that you don't base your "facts" without self
reference (or to posts from people like you), you intentionally ignore
current reality (where many experienced lawyers decide to settle and
comply, rather than go all the way), and now you don't even make a
compelling offer.
