Hall of Shame

[Harry-Chen]

此 issue 中将会持续记录违反 LPPL 1.3c 协议使用 thuthesis 的行为，以示警告。

2022年3月17日，清华大学研究生会管理的“THU学术之路工作室”微信公众号发布文章 有羊毛｜“自强不息”被我画了出来......。其中提供的“清华大学研究生开题报告”、“清华大学研究生学位论文”模板二者实际均为经过修改的 thuthesis，修改内容包括且不限于示例文档。

此修改版在分发时，没有注明修改的内容；并且既没有提供未经修改的原版 thuthesis，也没有明确提及获取原版 thuthesis 的方式。这些行为违反了 LPPL 1.3c 的下列条款：

6.  If you are not the Current Maintainer of the Work, you may
distribute a Derived Work provided the following conditions are met
for every component of the Work unless that component clearly states
in the copyright notice that it is exempt from that condition.  Only
the Current Maintainer is allowed to add such statements of exemption
to a component of the Work.

  a. If a component of this Derived Work can be a direct replacement
     for a component of the Work when that component is used with the
     Base Interpreter, then, wherever this component of the Work
     identifies itself to the user when used interactively with that
     Base Interpreter, the replacement component of this Derived Work
     clearly and unambiguously identifies itself as a modified version
     of this component to the user when used interactively with that
     Base Interpreter.

  b. Every component of the Derived Work contains prominent notices
     detailing the nature of the changes to that component, or a
     prominent reference to another file that is distributed as part
     of the Derived Work and that contains a complete and accurate log
     of the changes.

  c. No information in the Derived Work implies that any persons,
     including (but not limited to) the authors of the original version
     of the Work, provide any support, including (but not limited to)
     the reporting and handling of errors, to recipients of the
     Derived Work unless those persons have stated explicitly that
     they do provide such support for the Derived Work.

  d. You distribute at least one of the following with the Derived Work:

       1. A complete, unmodified copy of the Work;
          if your distribution of a modified component is made by
          offering access to copy the modified component from a
          designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy
          the Work from the same or some similar place meets this
          condition, even though third parties are not compelled to
          copy the Work along with the modified component;

       2. Information that is sufficient to obtain a complete,
          unmodified copy of the Work.

此外，文中提及「"清华大学研究生学位论文”LaTeX模版在网上并不鲜见，但是“清华大学研究生开题报告”LaTeX模版却是首秀」是不实言论。2021年3月12日发布的 thuthesis v7.2.0 版本中，即包含了开题报告的格式（指定 thesis-type=proposal）。
