Sounds reasonable... have you ever thought about having your friends, who are basically being given the company you built, provide a percentage payment of business profit from your clients back to your survivors?
I'd hate for the business that I've built not to benefit my wife after I'm gone. It does complicate the situation, however, and might deter some from entering into such a partnership. I guess it would be like selling the business, but, instead of selling for a one-time amount, all business profits from my company's work (basically site/app hosting) would be split between my survivors and the handling company, until my clients decided not to continue using the sites or apps. There are as many ways to do this as there are to build a CF app...

I've signed an agreement with my friends who host my customers on their server. They also are CF developers. Our agreement just stipulates that if, for whatever reason my company is not able to go on supporting my customer's applications, then they will have all rights on all source code to continue hosting, support, development, etc. I give a copy to my customers, and apparently they are happy with this. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Upgrade to Adobe ColdFusion MX7 Experience Flex 2 & MX7 integration & create powerful cross-platform RIAs http:http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;56760587;14748456;a?http://www.adobe.com/products/coldfusion/flex2/?sdid=LVNU Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/message.cfm/messageid:268519 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=11502.10531.4
