Hi folks, When giving credit where it's due in my code, should I mention the code that I looked at, or the code on which _that_ was based? Put graphically: pkgA written by personA pkgB written by personB bits stolen from pkgA by personA I am writing pkgC written by personC (me) bits stolen from ? Thanks, Sheldon.
