has_many :through does it support collection_singular_ids ?
Good evening list members, I have the following model: class Author < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :authorships has_many :books, :through => : authorships end Should I be able to do the following? Author.find(:first).book_ids = [1,2,3] I ask, because it doesn''t. The docs state that it should, but it doesn''t specialise in the case of a :through This works fine BTW: Autho...

Has Many :through associations
Greetings again: I''m simplifying the case I presented earlier regarding the use of has_many :through. I''m using DHH''s example from "Persuing Beauty with Ruby On Rails". Here are his models: class Author < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :authorships has_many :books, :through => :authorships end class Book < ActiveRecord::Base has_many :authorships has_many :authors, :through => :authorships end class Authorship < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :author belongs_to :book end Here''s the code sample he provides to...

Authorship and Attribution
A question on authorship and attribution policy for the Wiki. I originally credited Alan Bartlett for the page content on HowTos/ConfigureNewVideoCard, but he was not comfortable with that and the reference got removed in the edit process. I generally do not include my name on Wiki pages I create, but it is fairly common...

It's a bit of a philosophical question right now, but at some point in a developing package's life - particularly one that starts small but is subsequently refactored in growth - there may be no code

...at some point in a developing package's life - particularly one that starts small but is subsequently refactored in growth - there may be no code left that was contributed by the original developer. > > Is there a point at which the original developer should not stay on the author list? Authorship is not just about code. For example, there are functions in R which have been completely recoded, but the design and documentation remain. Copyright can apply to designs and there is shading between inspiration and infringement. And many of us believe that inspiration should be credited as...

Where code is copied (or derived) from the work of others (including from R itself), care must be taken that any copyright/license statements are preserved and authorship is not misrepresented.

There's overlap but they are not the same thing. You can see whether someone is a copyright holder by referring to the license you had and whether there is any of their content remaining. But that might not mean they are package 'authors'. If you reuse code verbatim from another pack...

In most authorship-listing schemes first author is the one who did the most direct work (wrote the draft, in the case of an article). On the other hand, citing Dusa (2015) implies NO work by Other in the entity being cited. That is clearly and concretely not the case. I will leave you with this, which may sound like...

Simply advice: The former co-author contributed, so he is still author and probably copyright holder and has to be listed among the authors, otherwise it would be a CRAN policy violation since even if he does not develop further on, he developed parts of the so far existing package (if you talk about a CRAN package). I am not a lawyer, hence I cannot speak for copyright/license stuff in
