To put it more precisely, when a process abandons a contract it will either be orphaned or inherited. Once orphaned, a contract stays orphaned.

If you use 'ctrun -l none', the contract the child process is running in will be orphaned. i.e. it will have no owner, and will never again have an owner. Dave
