XPDF Author refuses to support SCO customers
(link dead, sorry)
This is entirely understandable. I think it is morally wrong, but as I've said before, I'm not sure that I wouldn't do the same thing were I in these folks shoes.
Got something to add? Send me email.

I think xpdf's author's decision to abandon SCO users is merely hurting the users, not SCO. In fact, I believe his turning his back on SCO users of xpdf plays right into the hands of Darl and his buddies. If other Open Source authors take the same tack then SCO will have inadvertently succeeded in damaging the Open Source model.

I don't disagree, but I also understand his position. It's tough either way.
