Exactly. Even worse, by taking the senior author spot, she's implying that she conceived of the experiment and oversaw the work. She didn't do squat. The only thing she did was okay a courtesy request to use the data. She did not come up with the idea to change the software, and she didn't do any of the programming. Arrogant and awfully close to unethical IMO.

The U of A is giving chocolate covered bacon to the first 100 students at the Lady Razorbacks basketball game tomorrow night. Great promo, right?

Agree completely. She is desperate for recognition and attention - and is just grabbing at anything that will shine her ass.

In the course of that conversation, they asked me about using data from our most recent publication (technically RR's data, but I'm first author on the paper) to test the new release of the software. Since the data files are in a public repository they're fair game as far as I'm concerned. I gave them the index number for the files and told them to have fun. Didn't mention it to RR because, well, the data files are publicly available. I received another phone call yesterday from my friends at the company, asking my permission to use the the results of their analysis in their poster at the upcoming professional meeting. I told them that it should be okay since it's public, but they should really ask RR if they felt the need to get permission. A nice bit of courtesy but unnecessary IMO. They did. She insisted on being senior author on their poster. I'm 2nd author, over several people in the company. This just gets all over me. What the hell work did she do in developing their software? They took information that was publicly available from our paper and reanalyzed our data files in order to show quantitative data. This happens all the time, but other investigators do not insist on being included in publications resulting from data in a public repository. They could maybe include me because I chatted with them about some stuff, but I certainly shouldn't be 2nd author. Acknowledgments would be fine. (rant over) Am I over-reacting, or does this seem a bit off to anyone else?
My 02: Yes, this is a bit off. The company is at fault here. When they got RR's request, the correct response should have been, "No, there's a misunderstanding. We're asking permission as a courtesy. You're not going to be author of anything; you didn't do any of the work. An acknowledgment will have to do." And if RR pressed it too far, the response is, "We beg to differ. The data is public; we'll cite our sources and references correctly; go away."

And I think you should insist that an acknowledgment is all you need as well (as galling as it might be to get mentioned in the same sentence with RR).
