Folks: Who owns the work? Obviously, if programming is done on an employers time, using employers resources (hardware, office space, software, etc), they own the code. However ... what if a programmer does work on his own time, using his own resources (say, an account on Netshare400) ... but it's code ... does the employer have any claim on the resultant code? A friend of mine is encountering this type of situation ... he was presented with a new employment contract that states "Any software developed while employed by xyz corp is the sole property of xyz corp" (or something to that effect). Ideas? david -- | Internet: david@midrange.com | WWW: http://david.fallingrock.net | | Justice ... not vengeance
