in reply to Copyright of code on Perlmonks
It is my understanding that via the Berne convention on
copyrights that the author always owns the copyright, unless
he gives it away, so the employer you mention should rightfully
be conserned with using copyrighted material, even if it is
a vanishingly small probability that anything bad would happen.
Anyway, it wouldn't hurt to put a copyright statement on the site, but
it would have to be crafted so that individual monks could
opt out, presumably with their own statement. I guess it's
time to call the lawyers :-/
