Plagiarism
In that the code presented herein is covered by the GNU Free Documentation Licence 1.2, I'm not convinced that anything developed or reimplemented from an example in another language can be or should be identified as "plagiarized", particularly if the appropriate acknowledgements are in place. (Rosetta Code even provides the means witihin the editor to indicate that a program is a direct translation of some other work via the {{trans|XXXX}} template. [see Template:Trans]) Plagiarism can be a very emotive word and a serious charge to level at someone, particularly when related to software development; we should avoid describing work presented here as such.
