   Derivative Licensing Question   
   21 Mar 25 16:13:46   
   
   From: none@invalid.com   
      
   Consider the following situation....   
      
   Someone has published all the source for a project in C on GitHub.   
   There is no licence statement, just a copyright notice with the date and   
   author's name.   
      
   If I take the source and clone the functions so they have the same   
   prototypes but write them in assembler and have the same flow, is this a   
   derivative work?  Or is the assembler version my work to licence how I   
   feel?   
      
   What do people think?
