| Breach of Copyright |

What a shame to read that our forum had been responsible for a breach of copyright of Nigel Gardners PIC C manual.
It is hard to imagine people spending the time writing reference material for our use if people steal their work and their opportunity to make a living. |

Hi Jeff,
A couple of days back there was a request from a new user for suitable text to begin studying C.
I dont know how to link this back to it. There were several replies including one offering Nigel Gardners full book as a PDF.
I guess I find it disappointing when the forum is so helpful and positive to have someone ripping off the guys who put the effort into writing helpful books.
There is a reply from Nigel on the post
Cheers
Mark |

| I went back and couldn't find it so i guess CCS deleted it just before they changed the forum policy to include piracy... |

Yeah, what a world.
Unfortunately the guy's IP address didn't match anyone's.

Good for you Darren for being on top of that and deleting the post - that isn't right!
