Nobody ever claimed his work as their own. Torven is just angry that the P2002 Devs use the term EQMacEmu instead of his name. Plagiarism is a serious thing, and entirely different from using Open Source code and giving credit where credit is due.
The thing is, it doesn't matter. People on P2002 don't know Torven, he is not a part of our community, he doesn't post there. It doesn't really make a difference to the people playing there if the patch notes have his name in it or not. It is just easier to use the Term EQMACEmu to refer to the entire team (after all that is the GIT name of the project). I am sure Wharhogg would accommodate you and replace EQMACEmu with a full list of your developer's names if that was your wish.
