- microtherion 6y agoBack when the GNU project was founded, there were still lots of AT&T copyright notices in BSD headers, and it took some nasty litigation in the early 1990 to sort things out. Incidentally, in my opinion it was this lawsuit which gave Linux a head start vs the *BSDs at a critical point in its life.
