And what about the fact that both (the supposed original author and the supposed derivative author) recognize that the second work is a derivation of the first?
I mean, despite in reality it is or not, which is the value in this circumstance of a part's decalration?

If you coded in a new language from scratch, using your own expression

rightfully claim to be the sole author.
If your work is really a >translation< from one language to another,
(if you took his code and did a simple one-for-one translation
to the new language) then I think it qualifies as a derivative.
I'm not as familiar with this stuff as others might be on the list.
Perhaps they can clarify if I'm anywhere near reality.

You'll probably want to avoid an identical copy of the layout ofYes, and as a matter of fact in no way I can provide exactly the same

thing qualifies for any sort of artistic protection...
characteristics due to the inner differences of the two programming
languages, so that not all the features are reproducible.
However, I want to stress out that the original author is fully aware
that I have made those modification and agrees on that, as well as on
the fact that I claim to be the author of the code (he is acknowledged
as being the original designer).
The main reason why I like to avoid to mention the original author as
the author of the derivative work is because the responsibility of the
code and its appearance is fully mine, and people should refer only to
me should they find problems or malfunctions.
