Sweet! I've been meaning to look at the status of Sourceware for
a little while now. Back in '98 or '99 there was some l0zers who'd
purchased the trademark rights are were telling us to stop using
the name (which I essentially ignored :-) - I'm positive their
company doesn't exist any longer. It sounded implausible even in
the silly high-times of 1999-2000.
The whois record for sourceware.com shows the owner bought it for
five years. Boo! It looks like a single person doing some side
work out of his home.
