That git repo is gone now. But I have a backup, just in case someone thinks they can claim this never happened.https://twitter.com/oe1cxw/status/1136609979975307265 …

This file says "Copyright (C) 2019 Brown University, By: Soheil Hashemi 2019". https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/BROWN-yosys-abc/blob/standalone/passes/techmap/phys_abc.cc … But it's in large parts just copy and paste from https://github.com/YosysHQ/yosys/blob/master/passes/techmap/abc.cc …, which I wrote. For large portions of the file the only difference is the indenting. cc @BrownUniversitypic.twitter.com/X7gybmLTfY

This is an important point. Hanlon's razor is very much relevant here. The solution is to do a better job at teaching students (and in many cases faculty) how open source works.https://twitter.com/mguthaus/status/1136617068353114112 …

How do you find things like that?

I've been pointed to https://github.com/The-OpenROAD-Project/Birds-of-a-Feather-Open-Source-Academic-EDA-Software/wiki/DAC-2019-Birds-of-a-Feather:-Open-Source-Academic-EDA-Software …, a BoF session at DAC, and just browsed what other repositories are in the same github organization, and found it contains a copy of Yosys and ABC. (Not a fork. Not a copy with history. No, a fresh re-import of Yosys and ABC.)

Hm. Have you tried to contact Soheil?

No. I'm not going to spend any additional time on this.

I would think Brown University would like to know if they have people stealing IP on their behalf.... I certainly would!

I remember when
@GoogleATAP released ProjectVault some years ago they took the liberty to replace my (LGPL) license headers on my verilog with their own Apache ones instead. I didn't want to waste any energy on that either, but I guess I should at least have called it outThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

The github is gone btw..

Haha. Here's a backup of the git repo, just in case someone claims that it was never there in the first place: http://scratch.clifford.at/BROWN-yosys-abc.git.tar … This is the commit that replaced my name in the copyright header. I guess that's what they mean when they write "cleanup" in the commit message.pic.twitter.com/qEGSB35Vkx
