| James, we respectfully disagree. I think it's helpful if you (or anyone reading this) compare two projects side by side. This is the project you have submitted: https://github.com/jameskeane/scrambler It is a prototype of IPSec CNI plugin using Bash. We are happy you are promoting your project online and as we've discussed during the interview, you could use it as you wish as it's your work. This is the project that we have created at Gravitational: https://github.com/gravitational/wormhole It is using Go, Wireguard and is designed for production use under Apache 2 license. I understand that similarities in the problem statement may have led you to believe that
we could re-use the project idea, I'm assuring that you that we have not. There are many OSS CNI plugins in the market solving the similar problem in a similar fashion (e.g. flannel with IPSec backend). As a matter of fact that's the main reason we have picked this as a problem statement - to make it easier for candidates to look around for prior work. For example, this is a submission of the engineer we've hired based on their similar execution of the assignment from April 2018: https://github.com/webvictim/k8s-ipsec-cni James, I wish you the best and hope that my response clarifies some confusion around this. Sasha,
CTO and co-founder at Gravitational |
Were you lying when you explicitly told me the opposite or did you decide after my submission (going by commit dates) to make this a "real" project?
You didn't steal my code; you stole my _ideas_ and are now presenting them as your own original work. Shame on you.
