Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
Mullet I believe what he meant was you can not advertise that you will develop a CakePHP app for money or your company will develop a cakephp for commercial use and sell it. Please correct me if I am wrong. I have dealt with some trademark issues lately with a company I am working with for my employer and they told me it's okay to mention the companies trademark as long as it mentions who owns the trademark and has the trademark symbol by it. Again this might be different for CakePHP but from what I have dealt with I have only had to put the symbol and mention who owns it. Now the Source Code for CakePHP is different it's name CakePHP that is trademarked not the source code. You can distribute the cakephp source with your apps as long as you don't alter the header information in the source of what was written by the CSF. The source is under the MIT license ... you should check it out so you have more of an understanding of it. http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php If any of these is wrong please correct me anyone. I am sorry to hear that the book has been canceled and there was problems amoung the community but we are better then that we can get past the problems and be more concerned about the community then our personal means. - Jon On Mar 11, 9:02 am, The Mullet [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: @Mullet Trademark and Copyright are two seperate issues.

Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
Hello all, Please forgive me as I'm about to throw a huge spanner in the works. I'm not trying to cause any trouble, I'm just wondering if it's possible to turn a bad situation into a beneficial one. When something like cakePHP comes along, it's hard to keep everyone happy all the time. Feelings get hurt and Efforts sometimes get overlooked. We are only human, but this project is one of the best examples of what humanity can do for the greater good within the confounds of this digital realm. I've seen both parties apologise to each other. Nobody is interested in causing trouble to others, they are just trying to defend themselves. In doing so, it is easy to possible get distracted from the more important things: Something beautiful is happening here. People are sharing their work in the hopes that it may benefit someone else. People are taking time out of their own lives to help those who seek that valuable help. Some are very busy but still give whatever they can without asking for anything back. This is amazing! A community has grown, and it's one of the best I personally have ever seen. To keep such a wonderful community alive, sometimes we have to bite the bullet, and try to focus on what the future may bring. So... (enter spanner): How much of the book was actually written? History of cake and all that stuff aside, of the technical content that was written, would it be of use to the community or in educating new potential bakers. It seems to me from reading this thread that all parties put a great deal of work into this and it seems a shame that this work may go to waste. So the publishing deal went sour! I have no knowledge on publishing commercial books etc but rather than waste the efforts involved, would there be anything to say for releasing at least the approved content and allow the community to benefit from it. The subversion book comes to mind, with a 'Donate' link on each page. They may not amount to millions but at least if donations could be shared between all parties wouldn't everyone benefit? That's it from me. Sorry if you think this was just a complete rant and waste of google's disk space. I'm not trying to make matters worse by any means. I just hate to see effort wasted.

Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
CakePHP is trademark of the Cake Software Foundation, Inc. ^^^ I suggest to specify this clearly on the CakePHP website, like Rails does, at least. I did a quick search on the Trademark Electronic Search System (http:// www.uspto.gov/main/trademarks.htm): Ruby on Rails came up and CakePHP didn't, but I may be wrong... We would like to be involved at some level of any book that comes out. I'd like to share my personal experience and a small anecdote regarding this. Although the CSF was paid to review the whole book, as a matter of fact they reviewed it *what they wanted* and *when they felt like it*. An example? Although they are - apparently - so concerned about having proper code used in a book, it seems that they didn't care about some obvious mistake in Chapter 3 of my book when I used the .html extension for the views (deprecated in 1.2) instead of .ctp... This means nothing, of course, but according to them such chapter was fine. On the contrary, Larry explicitly *forbid me* to put any reference to Michal Tatarynowicz in the book, stating that himself should be considered the creator of the framework. So much for a technical review! Here's the censored passage: --- History and Uses of CakePHP While it's difficult to copy Rails in PHP, it's quite possible to write an equivalent system. I like the terseness of Ruby code, but I need the structure that Rails provides, how it makes me organize my code into something sustainable. That's why I'm ripping off Rails in Cake . This was a comment by Michal Tatarynowicz a.k.a. Pies in reply to a blog post about Rails clones. Michal started to develop a rapid development framework in 2005, drawing his inspiration from Ruby on Rails structure and methodologies. About CakePHP's early days The old CakePHP Web site is still available at www.sputnik.pl/cake-old/. Please note that the framework has evolved a lot since then, with the help of an always-growing, hyper active community. As repeatedly remarked by Michal Tatarynowicz and other core developers like Larry E. Masters and Garret G. Woodsworth - who now actively maintain the framework - CakePHP is not a port of Ruby on Rails to PHP. RoR was developed in Ruby for a reason, mainly because only Ruby could provide a concise and elegant syntax and offered advanced OO features necessary to develop such an optimized and quick- to-use application framework. --- I complied, although reluctant, to the order and informed the publishers that - despite the chapter was already sent to production - I needed to re-write that bit. I was asked by one of the editors how much of a modification was it, and I replied: --- Basically Larry wasn't too happy to read that I mentioned the former creator of the Cake framework, a project originally available in public domain which is the ancestor of CakePHP. Basically I'll remove all the references to the creator of the Cake project in the very first part of the chapter (History of CakePHP) --- As I put Larry in Cc, he immediately sent me the following email: --- Ok Fabio, Any reason you replied with this when the question was How much of a modification, not why are you doing a modification? Seems to me you are trying to piss me off, or make me look bad in the public eye. Fabio take the time and go through the code of CakePHP, it is not what was in the public domain. And I am going to say this again to you, Michal is not the creator of the project. Look at the time line in the trac site... I already told you in an IRC chat, that Brego and I are the ones whose code was what has now become CakePHP I will be glad when this project with you is over, I wish I would have thought about it more before thinking you where the best to write this book. There are others who have a better understanding of the code that would have been more qualified to write this IMO, and it worries me with this being the first book, what the quality of that book is going to be with you at the helm of the writing... --- Was I _really_ trying to piss him off? I don't think so! Definitely _he_ did after such a comment though! Anyhow, a piece of advice for potential writers and publishers: be extreely careful of what you write or try to publish. If he doesn't like it, he'll tell you that you won't be allowed to use the CakePHP logo and name in the book title and that would be it: the book gets cancelled. That's precisely what happened to me.

Fabio, I can sympathize about how sad you feel that your project ended, but I believe this is BY NO MEANS proper, professional behavior. All you do here is to rant against people at CSF, disclosing details that should be between you and the other party. If you wanted to come across with an advice, the first thing you should've done is stay objective, or *at least* professional. What good can we get out of this? By us I mean the rest of Cake community reading this google group. All I see here is someone who's annoyed with someone else, pasting emails that we do not know for sure if they were ever written, possibly leaving out your own emails, and which we don't even care. Or at least we shouldn't. We are here to promote, maintain, and help other bakers use CakePHP. As a final note, I've looked at old Cake's source code and it's not at all what it is today. Just because someone had the idea to build something doesn't make them the creators when that something was completely rewritten.

Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
Yes, you're right. My behaviour right now is not professional, and I'm sorry for that. I just feel very hurt and sick of someone's behaviour. I realize the community will be sick of my behaviour at this point, and I'll probably quit ranting, the community doesn't need this. I would just like some people - Larry in particular - to realize that what he did was wrong and inappropriate towards me and the publisher. True, there's probably nothing of Michal's Cake in CakePHP, but I do believe he had at least just the idea for it, at least, and he should be at least mentioned. On a side note, I always praised Larry's effort in the past, in the book, and even now I think he's probably the best PHP coder I've met. BUT I would like him to realize that is not OK to treat people like crap, especially when he was the one who failed to meet the deadlines in the first place. Everyone is entitled to his own opinion - I have mine, people may share it or not, of course. His behavior during the whole thing was not professional. They set their own deadlines and they failed each one of them! And they keep putting the blame on my lack of coding/writing skills while they didn't develop a medium sized application in over seven months? At be honest and say clearly, to the community, that you didn't feel motivated all along and couldn't be bothered! That - at least - would have been more honest. If they didn't want to be involved in the project, they shouldn't have signed the contract *or* cancel it right when they felt that they didn't like it, not right when everyone is expecting the book to come out. I would have been annoyed, pissed off, but I definitely wouldn't have bothered to make all this public. I don't only feel sad about the failure of the project, I feel I was deliberately blamed for its failure and insulted by people who cannot admit their own mistakes. It wasn't because of my lack of skills that they failed the deadlines, was it? --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

RE: Cake Recipes cancelled
Fabio, I realize the community will be sick of my behaviour at this point, and I'll probably quit ranting, the community doesn't need this. I don't know about sick, and I can't speak for the whole community, but I know I don't need to witness an internal power struggle. I would just like some people - Larry in particular - to realize that what he did was wrong and inappropriate towards me and the publisher. Then that is something you and Larry should talk, be it over the phone or email, but disclosing your internal communication all it does (look at Dr. Tarique's comment) is confuse the rest of us, giving us a one side of the story that leads nowhere. On a side note, I always praised Larry's effort in the past, in the book, and even now I think he's probably the best PHP coder I've met. You are wrong, that would be me... Just kidding :) BUT I would like him to realize that is not OK to treat people like crap, especially when he was the one who failed to meet the deadlines in the first place. Nor it is right to disclose personal communications, or talk bad about someone, is it? If you wanted to point out someone else's mistakes, the best thing you could've done in the beginning is avoid making the same mistakes you are accusing the other party of. His behavior during the whole thing was not professional. They set their own deadlines and they failed each one of them! I don't know what your contractual agreement regarding deadlines was, nor I am interested, but Larry, Nate, Gwoo and the rest of the CSF have shown us (the community) endless commitment to producing what IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT: the framework itself. I have even seen releases on Christmas Day! What more commitment can we get on an open source project? We had this discussion on the Spanish google group today, where someone was saying that probably CSF's biggest mistake was lack of marketing. I say, aren't we users of a rapid development framework? So isn't it better that 1.2 is out stable, production-ready than having a nicer website than Rails? I think some of us need to have a look over on our priorities as developers. And they keep putting the blame on my lack of coding/writing skills while they didn't develop a medium sized application in over seven months? Again, I'm not familiar with deadlines nor I am interested, but as a witness of their source code habilities I can tell you know that they can not only build an application in seven months, but in one day! Look at the changes from one SVN commit to the other and you'll see the amount of work they can do on such little time. If they didn't want to be involved in the project, they shouldn't have signed the contract *or* cancel it right when they felt that they didn't like it, not right when everyone is expecting the book to come out. I completely disagree. I have the right to cancel a contract *AFTER* it has been signed if I believe the quality of the work doesn't meet my expectations. I'm not saying you had poor or great quality, I just believe that a person has the right to cancel on a contract. Signing a contract doesn't mean stick with it no matter what. I don't only feel sad about the failure of the project, I feel I was deliberately blamed for its failure and insulted by people who cannot admit their own mistakes. It wasn't because of my lack of skills that they failed the deadlines, was it? They didn't make a statement saying they cancelled the project because you were to blame, nor they wrote a blog post about it. It all started with your blog post, were you accused the other party of being disrespectful, dishonest, and with a general lack of commitment. When that happens, I obviously understand the need to defend their reputation the CSF had. So to tell you the truth Fabio, as I see it, this would've all been avoided if your comments didn't make this personal. But then again, I can understand how a man can be upset. For my personal experience, leave feelings behind when addressing the general public, or you may be hurting someone else's feelings and reputation. -MI --- Remember, smart coders answer ten questions for every question they ask.

If you mean will someone be able to use CakePHP in the title of a book without permission, then I will say no. CakePHP is trademark of the Cake Software Foundation, Inc.

But legal issues aside: if what Larry says is representative of the thinking that dominates the CSF, then, members of the community, be careful. Thats because, if he thinks anyone needs his permission to publish an _unofficial_ book containing the word CakePHP, how can anyone be sure that he is allowed to write a CakePHP Blog? Or even a website mentioning the Word CakePHP? Larry, will we be hearing from your lawyers if we do so? What do you demand if I want to start a blog which is named my unofficial CakePHP blog? So, please Larry/CSF let us know, if we can safely assume that the term CakePHP and its fair use are assured for the future - for free!-. And please don't refer to the CSF website as it does not answer any questions. Should you stick to your position that the term CakePHP can be used only with permission of CSF, I must strongly recommend everyone to switch to another framework, because I must fear that would be the beginning of an alienated community. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

RE: Cake Recipes cancelled
I may be out of my way here, but I don't believe CSF members behave like dictators. This is an open source project released under the MIT license, and as such it is bound by those terms. I think it is safe to say that you *can* use the term CakePHP as long as you address the binding of its license. However it is obvious that you cannot put an official CakePHP stamp on your book/blog/whatever (not just talking about an icon, I mean presenting your content as official CakePHP content) if you do not have the approval of CSF. This is just common sense. -MI --- Remember, smart coders answer ten questions for every question they ask. So be smart, be cool, and share your knowledge.

I personally feel that exceptions to the use of CakePHP trademark should be clearly defined on the site and they should be mentioned in a clause in the registering contract of the trademark or its equivalent in the country it was registered.

Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
I wasn't going to post anymore but I feel compelled to include a few more emails concerning that conversation. I emailed Larry back: Larry, I didn't mean to offend you or to piss you off and I hope you can accept my apologies: I really didn't mean to say that, and to me it doesn't sound offensive either (maybe because I'm not a native English speacker). Regarding this statement: I will be glad when this project with you is over, I wish I would have thought about it more before thinking you where the best to write this book. There are others who have a better understanding of the code that would have been more qualified to write this IMO, and it worries me with this being the first book, what the quality of that book is going to be with you at the helm of the writing... This certainly does not improve my morale - which is already not at its best - and it does indeed hurt my feelings. I'm sorry you feel like this about me and about me writing the book: if you feel this way I suggest you talk to the Peachpit staff and sort it out as you see fit. Just let me remind you that the book was proposed to me long ago, because a Peachpit acquisition editor noticed one of my (many) articles about CakePHP which I wrote for a magazine. I never criticized your code or your way of programming (which I indeed praised everywhere and in every possible occasion), moreover, it was me who told Peachpit staff to wait for you to finish the application despite the fact that you failed to meet the deadlines for the project that you set not only once, but twice. It sounds to me that you were waiting for a spark to pour out your real opinion about me and the book, and that really doesn't help neither me, nor you or the project. Again, I didn't mean any offense. ...and then he replied, in a more civilized manner: I didn't mean to offend you or to piss you off and I hope you can accept my apologies: I really didn't mean to say that, and to me it doesn't sound offensive either (maybe because I'm not a native English speacker). Accepted Regarding this statement: I will be glad when this project with you is over, I wish I would have thought about it more before thinking you where the best to write this book.

Just let me remind you that the book was proposed to me long ago, because a Peachpit acquisition editor noticed one of my (many) articles about CakePHP which Iwrote for a magazine. I am sorry about this comment, I should have thought about it more before sending it. It upsets me when you continue to give Michal credit when his work on the project was minimal, there are others who have worked on this project and contributed a lot more then Michal ever did. To see him given credit for this work, when he would not continue to take the code where it needed to go, does piss me off. You know this project consumes most of my life, and it is like one of my kids. I am very protective of it as I am with my kids. Then, eventually Garrett agreed to just mention -- in a restricted way -- Michal and Brego. The bottom line is, both parts did mistakes during the course of the project, I may have been a bit arrogant sometimes but I think my reactions were justified by seeing, day after day, that the CSF didn't seem to have a lot of interested in doing their part. All I'd like is people to understand my part, and that I'm definitely not the one to be blamed for the fact that the book wasn't published.

Re: Cake Recipes cancelled
Tarique is exactly right: The term CakePHP is trademarked so you can be prevented from using that for almost everything (including blog posts) *if* CSF wishes. It is this ambiguity from CSF which I do not like. Now, unless CSF decides to set up a public license which allows for some basic use of the Name, CakePHP is unusable in a commercial environment. Actually, right now CSF is even violating the MIT license under which Cake is published: the MIT license allows for redistribution of the Software, which I can't though, as the software contains the word CakePHP all over, but I am not allowed to use this word. Now, to make this clear: I have total understanding if the CSF wants to protect themselves against anyone who might abuse the term CakePHP by giving the impression that he is certified, or his book is an official Cake-Book or whatsoever. But a simple use of the word CakePHP, stating My Company has used the CakePHP framework in so many projects should be allowed. Once again: ACME is an officially licensed CakePHP-company should be forbidden unless licensed by CSF. ACME has produced software using the CakePHP framework should be allowed. CSF should provide such a statement with every copy of CakePHP. Unless they do so, no company should seriously consider investing time in this framework, because tomorrow CSF may decide it's time to cash in. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Cake PHP group.

RE: Cake Recipes cancelled
Fabio, After this email I seriously have a problem understanding you. As I told you before, I can sympathize with someone when they are feeling sad or hopeless (I have had my own share of sad moments), but your actions seem to be driven by a need of making us come to bad conclusions against the CSF. I am sure everyone had their share of mistakes, and frankly I'm no one to judge. But I think the point was clear in that *no one* was getting anything out of this public disclosure of personal emails. As I told you before, WE DIDN'T have the idea that you screwed up, until you so eloquently said you didn't. We didn't think you attacked anyone until, while in the spirit of retaliation against an attack that never came, you started criticizing members of the CSF. I politely ask you to come to your senses and approach this as *if you were not* a party involved in this issue. Just think of it as a member of the community, reading all this bull on what *should be* a group to support CakePHP's development, not to bury it in endless battles. Just remember, there was no such thing as a part, until you started giving the rest details about your conversations. Then you started making it personal, and hell broke loose. So with the respect that I have towards your previous CakePHP related articles (that is as far as I know your work), please stop this unprofessional, un-needed behavior so we can all move on. Letting go, and moving on to the next battle is not such a bad idea. Trust me, I know. -MI --- Remember, smart coders answer ten questions for every question they ask.

RE: Cake Recipes cancelled
It seems to me that a few individuals are mis-understanding our words and have a general mis-understanding of trademark policy. That was exactly my point, and I think such a document would help others avoid confusion. Confusion so high that some people even thought CSF lawyers were going to hunt them down if they mention CakePHP to a friend on the privacy of their homes. I mean the CSF is not a record label company :) But the more I have to do this, the less I have time to work on the thing that matters most, CakePHP. What about appointing people for areas, such as writing documents about trademark protection or marketing decisions (regarding website), that are not *core PHP* oriented? This is a community built on the trust of everyone to do their part. And some of us try to :) The MIT license covers the copyright on the code The day I found CakePHP and discovered it was licensed under MIT was the day that I felt in love with it. MIT license simply rocks. -MI --- Remember, smart coders answer ten questions for every question they ask. So be smart, be cool, and share your knowledge.
