Bref toute contribution au concours appartient a Google qui peut placer votre code sous n'importe quelle license sans vous en demandez l'avis ...
Je ne suis pas d'accord, regarde ce qu'il y a sur le newsgroup du concours :
There's been some confusion about Google's use of the code submitted by
entrants to the contest. We'd like to make it clear that under the contest
rules, Google does not claim ownership of the entries you submit. Instead,
Google simply obtains a non-exclusive license so that we're not precluded
from doing work in the same space as the entry you submit.
You remain free to use your entry in any manner you see fit (e.g.,
distributing it, selling it, licensing it, etc) as long as you comply with
the license requirements as stated in or with the files you download or
receive.
We hope this clears up any confusion about the contest and ownership of the
entries submitted. Our intent is purely to stimulate creative thinking about
search over large datasets, and to recognize those who find this kind of
problem interesting. Thanks for your interest and for taking the time to
write to us.
