Agreed! Totally think this is a learning experience for both sides

An…earnest mistake?

I’m sorry

Right, I wasn’t saying it shouldn’t have been a public post. Just that the public post shouldn’t have immediately jumped to accusations. FOSS or not, accusing someone of stealing code and intentionally trying to obfuscate its origin to pass it off as their own is a big deal for a developer. One that can destroy your reputation

A simple “I’ve noticed snippets in here of my work that falls under a license which is not attributed at all. Could you add the proper attributions or remove it from your project?” says the same thing and doesn’t jump to any accusations that you have no idea if are true or not

Honestly that’s my only issue with this. Ernest was totally rightfully called out for this, as he should have been. But Emma’s knee jerk reaction is just a real bad look. Don’t make any attempt to reach out and figure out why it’s in there. Immediately make a public post accusing him of stealing code, trying to hide that he stole it, and claim it as his own…on a FOSS project no less…

Surely there’s a step or 2 before that point…
