: Not copyleft, copyright. No license is specified on the site, so it's implicitly All Rights Reserved. Go ahead and contact the author, but I think we may be developing a problem of copy/paste submissions without proper thought given to source license prior to submission. I'm not sure what to do about it; the phrase "'''DO NOT SUBMIT COPYRIGHTED WORK WITHOUT PERMISSION'''" is sitting right there art the bottom of this edit form. Maybe I can move it somewhere more visible, or use Javascript to pop up a warning dialog to anon users, and to logged-in users once (dependent on a cookie). Annoying, yes. But there's no way I can afford any kind of legal defense. --[[User:Short Circuit|Short Circuit]] 01:17, 2 April 2009 (UTC) |

:: Maybe it needs to be explained in yet more detail "'''... NOTE: If you do not know the rights for the code, and you are not the codes author THEN DO NOT SUBMIT THE CODE!'''" ? --[[User:Paddy3118|Paddy3118]] 02:11, 2 April 2009 (UTC) |

:::: It seems clear but it is not (not RC or GNU FDL fault, but contents' owners fault), and shouting makes it not clearer at all. Take a look at [[Spiral#J]] (''derivative'' work of a paper where the copyright is not explicit, so all right reserved...?)... (Unless the author is the author of the paper too)... And see also [[Multiplicative order]], where there's a "citation" of a sold book (64$ on amazon)... it should be removed (or there are other laws like: if the citation is less than N lines then it's ok? Or exercises can be copied? or there's the authors'/editor's permission?). If I fish, I fish from the GNU sea (and specify which sea), where I am sure 97% there can't be legal issue for a GNU-licensed site. --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 14:53, 2 April 2009 (UTC) |

::: I've contacted the author, still not responding; anyway I posted it since I am almost sure he will be rather smooth about it (after all is a post for a community related to GNU Smalltalk, to "pump" it up too). Sounds irresponsible anyway, I know. Removing it, I will repost it when/if the author will answer. --[[User:ShinTakezou|ShinTakezou]] 10:27, 2 April 2009 (UTC) |
