It has come to my attention that this book appears to use the work of others without attribution. I'd like to give the authors a chance to explain why that appearance is false. From what you can see in Amazon's limited preview of the book, one can find numerous instances of code lifted from Andrew Sutton's "origin" library.
Some of the data structures have been renamed or had the case changed. Most of the duplication of Origin code comes in Chapter 7 in that book. There appear to be no references to Origin in that chapter (based on searching through the book in Amazon).
The IndirectlyCopyable text includes unsourced quotes directly from http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2012/n3351.pdf without quotation, and the concepts* diagrams are taken from the same document. Is there an attribution on the previous page that we can't see from Amazon's limited preview?
Crediting the work of others have been done in the book as mentioned in the links below: Preface : http://www.algocoders.com/sites/default/files/preface_foa_revised.pdf Acknowledgement : http://www/algocoders.com/sites/default/files/acknowledgement_foa.pdf Table of Contents : http://www.algocoders.com/sites/default/files/toc_foa_revised.pdf Chapter 3 : http://www.algocoders.com/sites/default/files/chapter3_foa.pdf Chapter 11 : http://www.algocoders.com/sites/default/files/chapter11_foa.pdf We have avoided repetitive mention of original sources in respective chapters to let not the content be littered with these details again. Please let us know if we need to attribute in respective chapters too, we would like to work on it. Your feedback will be really helpful to guide us as a corrective measure. Looking forward for suggestions, Cheers, Algocoders _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users <at> lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
