If you committed to do a system based on the original specifications,
then it would seem to me (I am NOT a lawyer) that you are covered fairly
well, as long as you deliver the system.  However, since the system will
soon be useless, you should inform your clients about the problem, show
that more work is now necessary, and renegotiate the agreement.

If you signed an agreement based on a fuzzy spec., you may need a
lawyer, but try to talk it out first (without making any more
commitments that you don't really want to make).

Anyway, that's my humble opinion.

Reduced competition from those he didn't "own"?

Not true.  I got my permanent residency to Auatralia last June as a
Computer specialist.  The occupations listed above are the priority
occupations that are needed the most.  You apply for a points test
and if you have the skill above you qualify for extra points (5pts).

True, unemployment is high esp for computer people but they will still
let you in.  And there is no assurance that you will get a job when you
get there--the unemployment rate is similar to California.

Cheers,
Reno

I've contracted in Australia last year and it was extremely difficult to
get a permit and a job--usually these go hand in hand.  If you are english
and under 27 you may get working permit for a year.  Otherwise, you need
a company to sponsor you or apply for permenent residency and go down there
and take your chances.  the resession in ausytralia is very bad and the US
for the computer market is far better even though there is a rescession here.

You should have skills which are very specialized skills that would make employers
want and need you.  


Good Luck
