This repository publishes code copied from and/or based on copyrighted 3rd party code published under specific licenses; without fulfilling the terms defined in those licenses. Particularly, the original license comments in the original files were removed and replaced by a license claim of the infringing party. That's not acceptable. Also, it's just silly, as the original licenses permit to use/modify/republish or even sell the code without having to pay anything to the authors of the original code.

Examples

• format.go contains verbatim copies of parts of code originaly published in strutil.go.
• btree.go contains verbatim copies of parts of code originaly published in btree.go.
• Many files found in the plan directory contain code clearly derived and/or parts sometimes verbatim copied from code originally published in plan.go.

In only minutes, I was able to found tens of similar additional copyright infringements. Also, this repository now has 100+ of forks and every single fork has the same copyright issue.

In essence, this project is an adaption/extension of the QL project for other SQL syntax and features, including alternative back-ends. (Which is, in sum, an amazing achievement - sincere congratulations.)
