Re: License status Ian Darling18-Jan-04 11:19 Ian Darling 18-Jan-04 11:19  Alexander M. wrote: so you have to ask the author. Generally speaking, if someone is posting something here, it's undoubtedly meant to benefit all programmers - so I would say that while asking would be a courtesy (and one I would encourage), I think it's reasonable to assume that you can use code here in a commercial environment. The exceptions to that would be where the author explicitly states that it is only for use in non-commercial software, or if the license of the software in the article is incompatible with the licensing of the commercial product (eg, GPL in a closed source product). On a legal basis, you're right - the copyright is retained by the original author, and that doesn't change just because it's posted here. -- Ian Darling "The moral of the story is that with a contrived example, you can prove anything." - Joel Spolsky New section. Please consider. nssone12-Jan-04 15:12 nssone 12-Jan-04 15:12  I, as most probably, ask a lot of hardware questions as well as programming questions. I was wondering if there was a possibility of adding a new message area for general computer hardware questions. I don't necessarily like the idea of cluttering the Lounge with them. Who am I?

My website: www.GP32US.com Notify me by e-mail if someone answers this message Marcello12-Jan-04 10:53 Marcello 12-Jan-04 10:53  Hi, as you know when I reply to somebody there is the checkbox: Notify me by e-mail if someone answers this message It would be a very useful improvement to have samething similar in two other places: 1) At the end of each message like: [Reply][Email][View Thread][Get Link][Notify me] 2) and at the end of each article ! Is that possible ? That would be great !

This seems nice, but this 'loads' the bandwidth like hell, especially in Lounge and other non-programming board. If thats for articles.. yes, it has good idea behind that I was born intelligent Education ruined me!. Voting with comments/ suggestion Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa12-Jan-04 7:05 Sarvesvara (BVKS) Dasa 12-Jan-04 7:05  Atleast let people know why they got 'less' votes. The reason for 4 or 5 in the votes are ok... but we would be curious to know why people votes us... 1, 2.. I was born intelligent Education ruined me!. asdfjkl; Shog912-Jan-04 7:32 Shog9 12-Jan-04 7:32  To the best of my knowledge, all areas on CP where it is possible to vote (articles, forums, polls) also provide a means of leaving comments. If the person voting wishes to comment, they are able to. If they do not wish to comment, there is no way (short of, perhaps, standing behind them with a whip and a threat) to force them. But in the end, it's all just database access right? And that stuff is just plain boring. - David Stone, not a programming question but...

It seems like 50 isn't a lot, especially when some threads have a bunch of responses. Thanks!

Re: 50+ Snyp17-Jan-04 15:45 Snyp 17-Jan-04 15:45  Since it probably isn't that hard to do, why don't CP make an input edit box and the user uses a customized value like 55 or 101 so on...

Re: 50+ Michael Dunn17-Jan-04 19:38 Michael Dunn 17-Jan-04 19:38  I imagine it would increase the load on the database server(s). And if the DB servers get swamped, the whole site suffers. --Mike-- Ericahist | CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | Homepage | 1ClickPicGrabber New v2.0.1! | RightClick-Encrypt There is a saying in statistics that a million monkeys pounding on typewriters would eventually create a work of Shakespeare. Thanks to the Internet, we now know that this is not true. Ability to recall or remove vote. WREY8-Jan-04 14:22 WREY 8-Jan-04 14:22  It happened to me once, and I've since become ever mindful of it. I voted an incorrect number, and wished I could've recalled it. My suggestion is (in the form of a question), "If the person cannot correct an incorrect vote, how about his/her ability to nullify the vote?" IOW, he/she cannot vote a second time for the same article, but at least he/she would have the ability to correct the error made (in a way). William Fortes in fide et opere! Re: Ability to recall or remove vote. Colin Angus Mackay11-Jan-04 11:11 Colin Angus Mackay 11-Jan-04 11:11  That's a very good idea - Especially if an article wasn't so good and then the author updated it and improved it. In that senario I'd like to be able to recast my vote to reflect the new improved nature of the article. --Colin Mackay-- EuroCPian Spring 2004 Get Together[^] Re: Ability to recall or remove vote.

I will no longer be listing every single article posted or updated on the site over the previous week since a list of 70 articles is daunting at best. Instead only those articles that are either unrated, or have been rated and have a score above 3 out of 5 will be included in this newsletter. what about new param in user preferences for this? Re: newsletter change Chris Maunder7-Jan-04 4:29 Chris Maunder 7-Jan-04 4:29  Good idea. cheers, Chris Maunder Codeproject CHM Meysam Mahfouzi6-Jan-04 19:01 Meysam Mahfouzi 6-Jan-04 19:01  Isn't it a good idea to convert each month's articles categorized in separated sections(.net, mfc, ...) to CHM help files. This way all articles are available for download each month. Don't forget, that's Persian Gulf not Arabian gulf!
