------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mon Jul 9 06:05:48 +0000 2007 ------- pjanik: Good point about the employer issue. Fortunately, the company that I work for is a California corporation and my workplace is in California so California employee rights laws are applicable. IANAL, but when a small company tried to give me a contract that didn't look right to me, I learned that in California, you own what you produce if you produce it on your own time. Of course, if your employer pays you to do certain work, it is generally theirs. However, if you create work outside of your job, California law generally recognizes that it is you work. IIRC, this little legal right is sometimes called "moonlighting rights" for the fact that it allows and protects employees to create their own works while holding down a regular job. Sadly, many other states with the United States have laws that generally give ownership to the employer even if you perform the work outside of your job. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
