Nothing Fair About this Use

Stefan Tilkov,

“SSWUG.ORG”, the “SQL Server Worldwide Users Group”, offers an article “Interview with Sanjiva Weerawarana: Debunking REST/WS-* Myths”. To read it, you need to sign up and give them your credit card info (the 7 day trial is the minimal option).

Of course, this article is the one InfoQ ran a week ago — and the SSWUG does not even mention InfoQ as a source. IANAL, and I’ll leave legal action to others, but at least it’s pretty obvious Mr. Stephen Wynkoop is right:

Many people don’t immediately understand how we work, the services we offer and how to get the most from SSWUG.

Indeed.
