I clicked on one of the files [1] after following the first of your pointers above, and found the file contained Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license header, with your name. Is someone forging a license, or is that header accurate? Then I looked at a file [2] from the second pointer, and it was CC-BY-ND-NC, so therefore *not* open-source. It seems the situation is a bit complicated? I don't speak for Google, by the way. -Karl [1] http://code.google.com/p/revistavenus/source/browse/trunk/revista_venus/webroot/js/floatbox/floatbox.js?r=11 [2] http://code.google.com/p/easy2modx/source/browse/trunk/assets/libs/floatbox/floatbox.js?r=2 >It would be great if you could also initiate a search for floatbox.js >across your service and remove the package from any other projects >that may have incorporated my software. > >Thanks very much... >...Byron McGregor -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Project Hosting on Google Code" group.
