Software Developer s IP That Is Not Work Product. During the course of this project, the Software Developer might use intellectual property that the Software Developer owns or has licensed from a third party, but that does not qualify as “work product.” This is called “background IP.” Possible examples of background IP are pre-existing code, type fonts, properly-licensed stock photos, and web application tools. The Software Developer is not giving the Client this background IP. But, as part of the Contract, the Software Developer is giving the Client a right to use and license (with the right to sublicense) the background IP to develop, market, sell, and support the Client’s products and services. The Client may use this background IP worldwide and free of charge, but it cannot transfer its rights to the background IP (except as allowed in Section 11.1 (Assignment)). The Client cannot sell or license the background IP separately from its products or services. The Software Developer cannot take back this grant, and this grant does not end when the Contract is over.
Software Developer. It`s going to take a little more than a webpage to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ my interest. As far as I‟m concerned, if a basic webpage is not serious, then the people behind it are not serious. A poorly presented webpage disturbs me, like undercooked food disturbs a chef. No one goes back for more undercooked food. The content needs to provide relevant technical detail to provoke interest. I need a portal to enable access to the developmental framework. I also need to see the requirements of customers to make sure that development reflects the needs of the supported projects. I need to be able to add to the development and I need to see that key questions are being addressed at any one time. I need to know where I fit in, and I need to know who is doing what at any one time so that I can target my tasks. Organization, simplicity, point of reference. There are a number of fields at play here, and I need to keep abreast of them all. I like things to be tidy, intuitive and in place. I don‟t want to go hunting around for things to get jobs done. I like to solve as many problems as well as I can, in as little time possible. Technical details are important, but dealing with project problems are my concern, and so communication is more important to me. I need to have access to many aspects of the project, including; staff registries, issue trackers, plans and progress and meeting reports. I want to see what people are talking about, i.e. the hot topics. I also want to keep in touch with the cutting edge and see what else is out there.
