And given the "required tools"

For performing the examples discussed in this tutorial, you will need a
Pentium 200-MHz computer with a minimum of 64 MB of RAM (128 MB of RAM
recommended). You also will need the following software:

   - Linux 7.1 or Windows 95/98/2000/NT operating system
   - Apache 1.3.19-5 Web server
   - Internet Explorer 5.0 or above Web browser
   - Ruby 1.6.6

Perhaps a bit old!?!

Just a bit old, yes... and wrong. There is no such thing as Linux 7.1 -- Linux
is not synonymous with RedHat, and Linux (the kernel) is only on 2.4!

Stealing from yourself is not plagiarism. It's just re-use, and something every good programmer should practice diligently.

Not wholesale, but several bits from his "Ruby Quick Reference Guide"
are copied from the online versions of "Programming Ruby" (1st ed.)
and "Ruby in a Nutshell" (1st ed.) without attribution. Don't know if
that's true for the other sections or not (I didn't check).

2.4 ? Hmmm, from which quadrant do you post ?

Ah ! It's just a typo... :smiley:

No, but stealing from other authors' work is. So unless the authors of "Progamming Ruby" and "Ruby in a Nutshell" have approved this "reuse" of their work, there's a problem.

Yes, there's a problem - however, assuming this is actually edited
into a new coherent whole (I didn't see if there were new bits, it
looked familiar from many years back) there's also some amount of work
done. Assuming the author is misguided rather than malicious, we
should applaud him for that work, even if he's using sources wrongly,
and then try to help him do things in a way that's more generally
accepted in a copyright-focused world.

I once compiled a kernel whose timestamp was earlier than the
timestamp of the .tgz file from which I'd gotten the source (thanks to
the time difference with Europe :slight_smile:

See http://www.rubypal.com for details and updates!

What's funny is how we are allowed to publish college text books as
2nd or 3rd Ed. and charge more for them, when most of the editing was
in fact correctional, and the resale value of such a book is paltry at
best. Of course, I'm talking more about older tech basic texts, like
physics, math, some engineering, etc.

Poor students.

There's a tiny little part of me that thinks the business is better
than even real estate.

I want to concur. Please remember that most people are NOT malicicious, and that re-use is a major factor in all the arts and sciences. Finally, in the course of our general intellectual development, it acquired a formal name: refactoring. I consider it one of the most important things we do in cultural evolution. I love the notion of refactoring.

Every day needs its own version of the truth, for it's a new day.

And yes, giving credit matters. But not as much as being useful. And...at some point, we all lose contact with our sources. How much can you carry on YOUR back?

That said...get those sources in order, and make appropriate attributions. It's about being respectful, of both sources and readers.

I, too, am writing a Ruby book - but it's just for me. Some of us just can't hold ourselves back.
