Hi all
One of my customers has asked to buy out the rights to one of my products. Currently there is only the one company using this. Normally my projects do not include the source because previously another client took the source, developed his own application with my libraries and set up in competition with me. Cost me about £30k in lost business. Previously when this happened I had one customer try to enforce "no writing software for 8 years after the sale" and another wanting 20% royalty on all derivative works which is basically everything and everybody. I told both of them where to go. This new chap wants ownership of just the one product. The chap has said he will pay for this but I've no idea what to charge or what terms I should impose or accept. Just wondering how to deal with this Regards Graham --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/A7F53C603656FA4CBE6CE969E85A119106EBCC@compsrv.compsys.local ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
