Outstanding result. Compliments to both the student and the Chair of the CS Dept at SJSU. Not only was the matter resolved properly, the Chair also managed to stop it from "escalating" until lawyers had to get involved. Instead, the Chair successfully "hit the pause button", reflected on the issues, got some expert advice, and then communicate the result clearly and definitively, so everyone could close this chapter and move on. Even for the prof who initially complained about the student posting code, this is a good result. It lets him know how he should update his course in the future, and what limitations on students posting code is reasonable, or not reasonable.
