Just the implementation. But by looking at the code you look at the implementation. So, it's ok to look at pseudo-code in a paper (even if that paper is under strict copyrights). But if you look at some code and the code up your implementation, then this counts as derivative work and needs to respect the licensing. > On 2015-09-18 16:00, Tim Holy wrote: >> not implemented, care to try?
