Hello:

I have written a software package that another company is interested
in licensing from me.  Can anyone give me some help as to what should
go into a licensing agreement?  I know, I know ... I should refer
these matters to a lawyer, but I'd like to take a run at a draft first.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hello all,

I'm not sure that this post is appropriate to this group but it is a question
arisig from a contract job, so here goes.

I have developed a billing system for a small business. The business does alot
of work being paid for by medacaid and state welfare departments. The invoices
which are sent to these places have 2 or three copies that get generated at 
once. Like the standard white, yellow, pink duplicate copies. One gets kept
by the business, the others go to various other places. How does one go 
about printing these multiple copies using a laser printer. I believe the 
forms are contact sensitive ( that's how the text is transfered from one 
copy to the next ). Can one obtain duplicate forms which work with heat 
instead of pressure ?? I'm sure that this problem has been addressed and solved 
by other people a million times. This is the first time I've had to do it 
though and would like to hear from people who have done this before.

While it depends on the range you will be firing from, I would recommend
skipping all of these weapons, and go for a rifle.  An Uzi is not very
accurate--the 9mm even less so.  You don't need the rapid firing capability
of the AK-47.  You want to get one very accurate shot in.  You also don't want
to use a bazooka.  The idea is to hit the target, but not give your self away.
The bazooka would make you too easy to spot.

> And what bullets should I use?

You want a bullet that will do the maximum damage once it hits the target.
I would reccomend a hallow point.  Even if your shot is off a bit, you will
mangle their innards badly enough so they probably will not recover.

Good luck!

HELLO ALL,

I have no clue what misc.jobs.contract stands for, and never bothered to read
a few articles to find out. See, I was under contract to kill this person,
and I'm not sure the best type of gun to use. Since it is a contract job, I
think this is DEFINITELY the best place to post. Should I use an uzi or a 9
millimeter cannon? Or would a bazooka be best? How about an ak-47 assault

   This is a standard clause.  It's in all our software licenses.  As far
as I'm concerned, it fair.  You're selling software that you've developed.
If it infringes on a patent, your're the infringer and should pay.

Organization: Whole Earth 'Lectronic Link
Date: Wed, 18 Nov 1992 18:49:56 GMT


The technical writers job bank of the National Writers Union 
lists many contract and staff writing jobs that go begging 
because we have no one to fill them. We are currently listing 8 
contract and 14 staff jobs

To hear a free description of these jobs, call (415) 979-5522.

The job bank is a non-profit cooperative effort organized by working 
technical writers who are members of the National Writers Union. 
Employers list their job openings on the hotline for free. When 
union members are interested in a job, our coordinator gives them 
the employer's name and phone number. Then the member negotiates 
directly with the employer. The union does not act as a middle 
man or broker. The union plays no role in the contract or terms 
agreed to between the writer and the employer. When members get a 
job through a hotline lead, they pay a finders fee of 12% of the 
first four months income. (Compare that to brokers who usually 
take a third of what the employer pays for the life of the 
contract.) 

You must be an NWU member to obtain the contact information about 
a job listed on the hotline. We are the trade union that covers 
all working writers (journalists, book authors, poets, technical 
and practical writers, etc.) except for those represented by the 
Newspaper, Screenwriters, or Dramatists Guilds. In addition to 
the job bank, the union provides many other services including 
union health plan, career networking, publishers and agents 
databases, and grievance handling (we've recovered almost 
$700,000 owed to writers). We are a national union with locals in 
12 cities across the country. We have been in existence for 10 
years and we are an affiliate of the UAW/AFL/CIO. Union dues are 
on a sliding scale based on your writing income, from a low of 
$35 for 6 months to a high of $150 per year. 

For membership information, or to speak with Kenya Briggs, the 
hotline coordinator, call (415) 474-5007.
