Canopy has never had any influence over Novell. Canopy once had a small
interest in Troll Tech. They sold it quite a while ago. Canopy fired
Yarro and severed all connection with The SCO Group (previously known as
Caldera) last year.

Noorda discovered that Yarro (who was then running Canopy) was trying to
swindle him and fired him. There was a lawsuit, and Yarro ended up with
Canopy's SCO Group stock. There is now no connection between Canopy and
The SCO Group. This is all documented at Groklaw.
There is not and never has been any connection between The SCO Group and
Corel.
