Ubuntu apes Novell in IP scare campaign

,----[ Quote ]
| In its hurry to embark on ventures that would 
| result in making its GNU/Linux distribution a 
| profitable one, it looks like Canonical, the 
| makers of the popular Ubuntu GNU/Linux, has gone 
| a step too far.
| 
| Canonical has launched an initiative called 
| Ubuntu Advantage which attempts to sell its 
| product based on many factors, one of them 
| unfortunately being the hoary old chestnut about 
| the possibility of Linux having IP problems.
| 
| The wording says it all: "Ubuntu Advantage gives 
| you peace of mind with comprehensive legal 
| cover. Ubuntu Assurance helps customers to 
| deploy Ubuntu without complicated legal 
| concerns. We take care of intellectual property 
| (IP) infringement legal claims brought against 
| customers in their use of Ubuntu."
