-> As for the source code, I thought the bank owned it.

Copyrights are a not an ordinary asset.  They can only be transferred
by a written document which is clear and specific.

Creditors in bankruptcy do not automatically acquire copyrights from a
debtor.  If no written copyright transfer document was executed between
CDC and the bank, then the copyrights still belong to CDC, which is now
a non existent entity.

I doubt the bank was savvy enough to get such a document.  The SCO vs.
Novell fiasco shows how otherwise knowledgeable business executives can
fumble the copyright ball.
