Violation of the Code Project Open License
-
So I spent a lot of time on some code and submitted it in an article. I recently did a search on the name of the engine and found that the first few results came from another guy who used the engine and posted my code but removed my name in comments from the source code, like he was the one who did it. I sent him a message a few days ago telling him to put my info back in or remove the project, but never heard back. It was a french website, but I translated the message and I'm sure he knew what I was saying. Does anybody have any suggestions on what I should do?

Post the URL/email address/phone number here and we'll all spam him like crazy. Have you tried doing a whois on the domain to get the owners contact details.

Ya, that would be a good one. :) The site is kind of like a French CodeProject, but he points to his personal website that does have all of his info in the whois.

Have you tried emailing that sites operators. They are likely to be more helpful than the individual.

He's got such an unfortunate name, I think you should just let him use it out of sympathy. "Author: Willi"

Definitely let Chris know through the suggestions board. At worst, he says "Sorry, Pal!". At best, his basement holds an semistarved adrenalinized lawyer that needs his yearly "little workout".
Don't attribute to stupidity what can be equally well explained by buerocracy.

Fancy leading a small invasion force to take over France? I'm not predicting much resistance.
If at first you don't succeed, you're not Chuck Norris.
Dissing the french army is sooo last century.

Grin and bare it. There's pretty much FA you can do. If you dont want your stuff stolen, don't post it on the web. Sad, but true.
I know what you're saying. It especially irritates me that their website beat out the codeproject's website in search rankings. Maybe I should yell at Google. ;)
