jfc... I get it, but damn.

@mklement0, @barsh is/was on vacation. I'll submit a PR before you have an aneurysm, but more importantly break our build process.

@Qix- You've read the exchange. You know what happened. You've made yourself feel superior. I respectfully opt out of this conversation you're having with yourself.

I was hoping that my informal request for attribution would be enough, but just in case you're unaware of the legal situation:

If I don't hear from you in the coming days, I will report you for abuse.

I have just filed a DCMA takedown request. You can learn about the process here.

Hey, thanks for letting me know.

Just to be clear: I want the repository to remain in place, and I think it's great that @barsh packaged it up, as I've stated.

I do, however, think that just republishing other people's work verbatim without attribution is not acceptable, and since I hadn't received any feedback in 11 days I decided to take action.

But if that's getting resolved now, that's great.

I'm asking this innocently (I'm really interested in the answer): how long would you have waited?

I was out of the country... this is my first day back, but I get so many messages from Github that I might have overlooked this anyway. I have made the requested changes. As @caseyWebb suggested, feel free to submit a pull request if you want more cred.

I'm glad to hear that this was just a case of crossed wires - thanks for fixing the problem. As I've stated in my response on stackoverflow.com, I am glad that you took the time to package up my code for easy reuse via npm.

@mklement0 Lol, seriously though. You wrote 5 generic SLOC on Stack Overflow and DMCA'd him over it due to no responses in a week or so. Just pointing out a bit of absurdity with that.

@mklement0 Mmk. :)
