I know about Project Monterey.

SCO, presumably.

SCO will have a hard time explaining why they waited over 4 years
to decide IBM left them at the altar. SCO will have an even harder
time demonstrating that major advances in Linux performance and 
architecture that happened *before* IBM got involved were the result
of IBM disclosing proprietary knowledge. For example, much of the
original IA-32 SMP work was done by Alan Cox, on a machine that
Caldera gave him: "He is also the author of the original Linux 
SMP code, which was sponsored by Caldera Inc."
