Hi,
Thanks for the responses.
@Gautham : Thanks to u for ur swift responses.
@Ashwin : Thanks, Ashwin Ji called directly and we had a small discussion
about my concern.
@Arun : Here is the link
<http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiConference_India_2011/Submissions/Wikipedia_and_Social_Media._How_to_increase_the_utility_and_prominence_of_Wikipedia_using_Social_Media>of
the content I posted on Wikipedia for WikiConference India 2011, This is
the link from where I fear the idea was taken. If you take a look @ the
footer of the page, there is a line which specifies that the text present
in the above page is linked with CC_License.
Regards,
Ade.

As far as the issue - to put it plainly, I
developed an idea to improve
educational sector using social media. But now I find that some
organization
has adopted the similar methodology. I was just
concerned to know if the
idea was taken from me. I am stating that my idea was stolen, but I
have my
doubts.
It is indeed unfortunate that you feel someone stole your idea, but the
bright side is that if this idea is something that can benefit the
community at large and help improve the education in the country, then the
real winner is our economy :)
I am curious about the creative commons connection though. did you publish
your idea somewhere under a cc-by-sa license? If you can share what exactly
the license issue is, I would be happy to help, since I have dealt with a
lot of copyright violations of my own work.
cheers
Well, it's entirely possible that they had the idea too, no? None of
us have a monopoly on ideas and sometimes, more than one person has
the same or similar idea at the same time. It's happened before.
I was confused over the commons license, and so I
e-mailed "active"
people
in the list. But there was no response.
Maybe you should have tried the Creative Commons mailing lists? Or
even posted her to ask for a general call for help. If nothing else,
feel free to email me and I can try and help.
Thank you.
Best,
Gautam
