Does CodeProject owns now article and code I published on it?
-
I was thinking… once I publish an article on CodeProject, does CodeProject own any copyright rights on that article and code? Can I publish that article text or code in some other place as well? Use it in my presentation without mentioning CodeProject? Also, Editor made some changes to the text… spelling, grammar, style changes. That is some work contributed to the article. Who owns copyright now to that version/revision?
