Is Claymore's Miner Claymore's?

It would seem as though it was not actually claymore's... as at least some code was copied from the SilentArmy miner and used without credit to SilentArmy developer Marc Bevand.

A very surprising turn of events, as most ZCash miners were expecting a top notch miner from Claymore that would mine better than any of the others. Considering he was bloating that he was going to create a miner that could mine at 100 Sols/s with an R9 390, it is a little bit of a shock that he was using code from another miner.

The SilentArmy might be Silent, but news of Claymores Copying was anything but silent. Heard around the world, people are talking, and it doesn't sound good for Claymore.

It could just be an honest mistake of not giving proper attribution according to the MIT license. As for charging I'm not sure if there is anything immoral about it as long as it does not break any of the licenses.

he lied and said it was just for testing
if it was just for testing,.. where is the intended actual release?
he know what he copied... he knew what his miner was based on
he release a miner that contains code copied from silentarmy
the hashrate is identical!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
