Informational Question To ChrisW About Plagiarism
Chris, I am a bit helpless as a lay after reading so much about plagiarism. Could you elaborate a bit about CHESS TIGER who has admittedly taken parts of REBEL with approval of Ed, how this could be explained in the plagiarism dimensions of the actual debates in CCC?

I know nothing about their relationship or what may or may not have happened, other than the impression that Ed took Christophe under his wing so-to-speak, they discussed development issues and Ed marketed the Tiger program. Later the relationship broke down. That's all I know and it may be random anyway.Rolf wrote:Chris, I am a bit helpless as a lay after reading so much about plagiarism.

Hypothetically, if one side revealed source code, or ideas, or concepts, he should, as any sensible commercial, have required signature of a non-disclosure and non-usage agreement without prior approval and logged the information transfers. If he didn't, then any information passed, including sources if any, can be used by the other. And, in absence of NDA and/or NUA, there is nothing that can be done about it.
Business is business and friendship is friendship. Don't mix the two.

If you receive permission, and give credit to the original author, it is _not_ plagiarism...Rolf wrote:Chris, I am a bit helpless as a lay after reading so much about plagiarism.

Re: Informational Question To ChrisW About Plagiarism
You mix academic and commercial. Plagiarism is legally irrelevent in commercial world, it's relevent but not illegal when discussing with fellow experts, and it's very relevent and could get you the sack in academia but still not illegal.bob wrote:If you receive permission, and give credit to the original author, it is _not_ plagiarism...Rolf wrote:Chris, I am a bit helpless as a lay after reading so much about plagiarism.

Re: Informational Question To ChrisW About Plagiarism
Two terms. Plagiarism and copyright. Both are related. Copyright is _not_ irrelevant in the commercial world. Plagiarism is simply a twist on that where someone uses someone else's work to make themselves look better.chrisw wrote:You mix academic and commercial.
