We have had that with TUMONZ a few times. We normally present a "choice"
where they can either get a discounted development rate and all code and
IP remains with us, or they can pay a rather larger development rate
where they retain the IP for just the enhancements. It's just a case of
selecting the correct "larger development rate" in order to steer them
towards the first choice. That said, we really do give them a discounted
rate if we retain IP since it helps enhance our product for everyone else.

Here's a question ...
If a client asks for enhancements to software which is wholly owned by
the software house and pays for that work then who owns the IP of the
new work ?
