===UnixWare merger=== [[File:SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 large dark blue commemorative cup (rotate).jpg|thumb|upright=0.7|left|Commemorative cup for the SCO OpenServer 5.0.6 release]] SCO purchased the right to distribute the [[UnixWare]] system and its System V Release 4 code base from [[Novell]] in 1995. SCO was eventually able to re-use some code from that version of UnixWare in later releases of OpenServer. Until Release 6, this came primarily in the compilation system and the [[Uniform Driver Interface|UDI]] driver framework and the [[USB]] subsystem written to it. By the end of the 1990s, there were around 15,000 [[value-added reseller]]s (VARs) around the world who provided solutions for customers of SCO's Unix systems. SCO announced on August 2, 2000, that it would sell its Server Software and Services Divisions, as well as UnixWare and OpenServer technologies, to [[Caldera Systems]], Inc. The purchase was completed in May 2001. The remaining part of the SCO company, the Tarantella Division, changed its name to [[Tarantella, Inc.]], while Caldera Systems became [[Caldera International]], and subsequently in 2002, the [[SCO Group]]. {{clear}}
