In addition to the complaint, Red Hat made another significant announcement:

"Red Hat has established the Open Source Now Fund. The purpose of the fund will be to cover legal expenses associated with infringement claims brought against companies developing software under the GPL license and non-profit organizations supporting the efforts of companies developing software under a GPL license."

SCOX shares are down 12% on the day, look for a big tumble as the speculators flee.
