No. Chris Elston got thrown off for no reason. Careful coder above too. Who knows how many more there have been who either haven't come back or just assumed they had forgotten their log-in info. I'm not just talking
Richards post here[^] was wrongly voted as abuse.

With more than 10 million members, this is bound to happen from time to time. In my experience of watching when it does happen it is almost always justified. It's a good little reminder to people that they are crossing a line, and most of them will stop, draw back and think what they are doing or saying.

This has nothing to do with the message itself - I rather suspect that many people here think of you as a Troll, and then use the slightest chance to vote you out of here.

What I'm trying to say, that you may not deserve them (I think you do), but it's not a bug...You were one of the listed authors (and you really added value to the article, so that wasn't a bug either), so you got points...

I have to agree with you. All the mouse-hover-popup menus/windows are very difficult to work with on WP8.

Not just that, but if you have hove-popup on your way to an another hover-popup, but the first is overlapping the second when opened you have to do a detour...That's just crazy...

It was taking up way too much space.
Can you think of an alternative?

New page? Fixed-size box with scrolling?
To make it clear my problem us not only the popup (and not mainly the popup), but that now we how a few of them overlapping each-other. So to get to Article Approval Popup I have to be extra careful not to hit Article Contest on my way. If I did I doomed...

Hi, how about provides a space for job posting.
Example:
One may post programming projects to public.
Any programmer who is interested may take the project and complete it.
The project owner will pay the programmer.
Job posting might include:
1. Projects (Pay per project)
2. Long term programming service
3. Short term programming service
On the other hand, programmers can make self-promotion for offering programming service,
any individual or organization may hire him/her for short or long term programming services.

We had a job board (actually a couple) many years ago but there was not a huge amount of traffic.
We'd prefer to focus on code collaboration for now.

I recently had a run-in with someone outside of CP who tried to use the permissiveness of the Eclipse license to rip off ToDoList[^].
Now I accept that this person may have been legally entitled to do so, but from an ethical perspective it was way below the belt.
Is there an alternative CP license that could better protect my product from such people whilst at the same time keeping the source open?
I have considered the possibility of not sharing all the source/binaries on CP (ie. exe but not dlls) but I'd like to avoid a solution that just makes more work for me.

What do you mean by "rip off"? You mean "claim the work as their own"?
We spent quite a bit of money on lawyers to draft the CPOL[^]. It lets people use the code but is very clear about rights and ownership.

Thx Chris.
What happened was they put their own binary wrapper around ToDoList which was okay so far as it went.
But it also caused problems for the operation of ToDoList, and so I asked to have my software removed from their site.
They refused and denied there was a problem, which there clearly was.
I responded by saying that the reputation of my software was being damaged, so they rebranded and renamed my software and re-released it. Legal perhaps but highly unethical.
FWIW I was using the Eclipse Public License that may have been too permissive. If you believe that the CPOL will serve me better I will gladly switch.

The CPOL states in section 5 "You agree not to ...imply that this Work is a product of Your own". Unfortunately I can't advise you on what legal agreement works best for you - only you or your legal advisor can do that.
While a license may allow someone to do an action, there are moral concerns that really should have been taken into account. What happened just seems...low.

Thx Chris.
FWIW, it looks like the best license for me would actually be 'Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs' (CC BY-ND).
Would that be acceptable to CP?

As long as you allow others to see and use your code, any license is good.
I've added CC BY-ND 3.0 but I have a real concern about the "no derivatives" part. Do you really not want people extending your work, or is it that you don't want people:
1. Extending your work and claiming it for their own
2. Extending your work and breaking it
3. Extending your work and taking it in directions you're not keen on
cheers
