3. Disclaimer

This HOWTO is not actually a HOWTO in the sense of the Linux Documentation Project . Instead, it is an instrument to investigate the commercial Linux opportunity and to list applications which were already ported and marketed in a native Linux version. As a software vendor, you probably know that you can alternatively offer Linux users a statically linked SCO version of your application which would probably run under the iBCS2 emulator (albeit with a small performance penalty and higher memory requirements). Such applications will not be listed here.

I will not select nor deselect any particular product. Instead, everyone who wants to have her product included will be serviced. However, I reserve the right to shorten individual entries to keep things in shape.

If you don't find a particular product or vendor in this list, this is probably due to one of the following reasons:

  • I never heard of that product or vendor and thus didn't try to get in contact.
  • I did get in contact, but the vendor didn't answer yet.
  • I did get in contact, but the vendor stated positively that he doesn't sell his product for Linux (yet).

In any case, please get in contact if you feel someone's missing; also if you discover any errors in the file.

Sometimes two vendor's addresses are mentioned in the ``Vendor:'' field. In these cases I received the information from the German subsidiary/distributor. The original manufacturer's address is always mentioned first.
