A few nights ago I responded to a post concerning "decompilers". It evolved into an issue of copyright.My question to all of you is;
Is all of the code posted on these pages public domain? Can it be used in any program private or public? Are credits (royalties?) due if it is used?
I have been curious about this for sometime now and would like to know if there is an actual policy on this.I would never dream of using code without permission.
If I post it you can use it :-) Not saying that you would want to, or even that you should BUT if you really wanted to you could :-). Butif you really wanted to send me money for it that's okay too :-)

I'm really easy to get along with once you people learn to
worship me.

Personally, I agree with NetSurfer - if I put code on here you can use it - a mention in the About Box of the program would be nice... (and I'll never turn free food away)
;)

Does an admission of credit allow someone to lay claim to royalties on a program that yeilds say 10 million dollars?
I don't think so.
Any way I don't supply that much ansewrs over here to think you are talking about me but I know for sure that everyone here (as this is public, no one is forced to ansewr, and I've never seen a copyright notice in a reply) is willing to JUST help. As for that I think that a little apreciation is all it is asked.
As for happearing in the about box of a $10.000.000 :eek: software I believe it is recognition enough. :D

Thanks for the reply,
I just wanted to get a general concensus on the issue. I hope everyone feels the same way. I'm off to write a ten million $ program (Ha-ha). I'll see you all in the about box!
Joey, just make sure you spell my name right :-)
Joey, do you need any help?! ;) Since your program is going to have sells of 10 million, I'll go easy on you and accept $200 per hour! :D
