David and Nathaniel, I¹ll pass this along to my legal department, as that is Pearson¹s standard process to have them communicate directly with you.

In that form, "digital signature" simply means typing the date and your full name in the appropriate fields. No fancy software or anything of the sort is required. It's just called digital because you haven't signed with pen and paper, but it's just as binding. > > Google is still hosting two illegal copies of my books. > > I've told you where they are.

We cannot act on copyright infringement claims without a well-formed DMCA infringement notice. Once our legal folks tell us that they're satisfied with the notice, they'll instruct us to take down the content. But we cannot operate outside the framework of the DMCA when it comes to infringement claims. - Dave > > On Fri, 11 Mar 2011 13:20:34 -0600 > Nathaniel Manista <[email protected]> wrote: >> > On Fri, Mar 11, 2011 at 1:07 PM, Mark Summerfield <[email protected]> >> > wrote: >> > >>> > > Someone has obtained a PDF of my books "Advanced Qt Programming" and >>> > > "Rapid GUI Programming with Python and Qt" and made them available >>> > > on code.google.com <http://code.google.com> . >>> > > >>> > > Here are the URLs: >>> > > >>> > > zester.googlecode.com/files/AdvancedQtProgramming.pdf >>> <http://zester.googlecode.com/files/AdvancedQtProgramming.pdf> >>> > > http://code.google.com/p/zester/ >>> > > >>> > > >>> > > >>> householdcommandmodule.googlecode.com/files/Rapid.GUI.Programming.with.Pytho >>> n.and.Qt.Oct.2007.pdf >>> <http://householdcommandmodule.googlecode.com/files/Rapid.GUI.Programming.wi >>> th.Python.and.Qt.Oct.2007.pdf> >>> > > http://code.google.com/p/householdcommandmodule/ >>> > > >>> > > I have cc'd the commissioning editor at the publisher (Pearson >>> > > Education) who will forward the details to their legal department. >>> > > >>> > > I would appreciate it if you would immediately remove these PDFs and >>> > > notify the people who have uploaded them that what they have done is >>> > > illegal. >>> > > >> > >> > >> http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/FAQ#How_do_I_report_a_copyright_or_inte >> llectual_property_violation >> > ? >> > -Nathaniel > > -- > Mark Summerfield, Qtrac Ltd, www.qtrac.eu <http://www.qtrac.eu> > C++, Python, Qt, PyQt - training and consultancy > "Programming in Go" - http://www.qtrac.eu/gobook.html > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Project Hosting on Google Code" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected] > <mailto:google-code-hosting%[email protected]> . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/google-code-hosting?hl=en. > -- Google Switzerland GmbH Brandschenkestrasse 110, Zurich, Switzerland 8002 Zurich Identifikationsnummer: CH-020.4.028.116-1 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Project Hosting on Google Code" group.
