I don't want to give the impression that I solved this much less that I did so on my own. The DMCA emails were sent to Ondrej, Aaron and Me and we discussed what to do about it. We also involved Numfocus who talked it through with us and brought in legal advice. Ultimately though even without us really saying anything publicly it ended up on Hacker News and the publicity from there just seems to have fixed the problem. > Does the counter claim contain a claim for the costs of legal advise and > for the time spent dealing with the issue? I don't think that's how the DMCA counter claims work. HackerRank have said that they will give SymPy $25k though and it looks as if they will follow through on that. > I think it is quite horrible that legal processes like this can be > initiated without any due care that they are genuine. Yes, well DMCA was controversial when it came in. I still think that the most immediate problem though is the way that GitHub has made a very asymmetric process that is basically automatic and gives nowhere enough time to respond. -- Oscar -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sympy" group.
