you keep saying that any work done for a third party on a
hired basis devolves the copyright to the third party. this
is not the case under current U.S. law as i understand it.
for a work to be a "work for hire", it needs either
to be created by an employee in the course of execution of
his official capacity, or by an independent contractor.
in
the case of an independent contractor, written agreement is
still necessary for the transfer of copyright to take place.
such work does not automatically become the property of the
client.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
