I hate people claiming others' idea as their own. At least he should give a credit to the original owner who wrote the code. You did the right thing. Andrew Matt,

He doesn't moderate comments before posting them, so it's up there for anyone to see. In fact, he shows recent comments on all pages, so you can even see it on his home page. I guess we'll see if he complies. He hasn't posted an article on his site in almost a year. It's as if the posts were for a summer class, project, or similar. Thanks again for the heads-up!

I guess it was only a matter of time. It would bug me more if he was providing the source code for download. In that case, the code base would unintentionally fork with separate communities, each not benefiting from the advancements of the other. That's actually one of the main reasons I added this project to Google Code. Really, the only thing that bugs me is it appears that he has taken claim to several ideas/code that are not his own. I'm less forgiving of my own hard work, as you put it, but several people's hard work...come on! Anyway, I'm contemplating on what to do it about it. Obviously, posting a comment on his blog (to go along with the sole comment he has now on one of the articles) will do no good. Thanks for the link, Andrew! I guess it was only a matter of time.

I'm wondering if you have any objections to my borrowing portions of your configuration-related code for another open source module I'm working on. I need to have the include/exclude paths & files features to prevent strange behavior during automatic redirects--pretty much the same type of things that you're doing in the SecureWebPageModule. Also, I have a C# port of a recent CodeProject build if you're interested. Any chance you can get in touch with me by e-mail?
