Hi All/Chris,

I previously brought up this issue under conservatorship for missing authors. I wanted to toss this out (one last time) with an example.

Chew Keong Tan offers a BigInteger class for C#[^]. It is a quality CodeProject exemplary article. It was originally published in August, 2002. The last update by the author was September, 2002. However, the implementation has a couple of bugs. For example, getBytes()[^] needs a correction, which dudubravo provides[^].

In my particular case, I am working with Tan's class. If I publish an article based on his class, I cannot simply direct the reader to his work because I have modified his sources. So I must introduce his work, explain the corrections, and then get on with my primary intentions.

As it stands, there are two downloads available: demo and source (the source has a bug). Would it not be possible for the CodeProject to incorporate the corrections, and make the download available for others since it appears Chew is no longer maintaining the article?

This would add a third download. It could be noted as "Download Source - CodeProject Maintenance (Date of Maintenance)". In addition, the download should include a text file with the CodeProject bug fixes and the reason the source has been changed. I believe this is with in the spirit of the open sharing. In addition, with the orignal EULAs in place, it is allowed by the author.

No source code hijacking or article rewrites have occured - only a correction. Most articles are trivial and do not require this shepherding by the CodeProject. However, every now and again there is a special article which begs for consideration.

Jeff
