Anyone belong to an organization that has a policy on ownership of Intellectual Property? I just need a sample that would cover the following cases:
1) The author is the owner of the intellectual property -- the organization has not rights to it.
2) The organization is the owner of the intellectual property -- individuals have no rights to it.
3) The organization and authors share the rights. This is the default -- projects undertaken by the organization involving specific authors/participants who jointly share the rights with the overall org.
Thanks for any ideas.

I'd give you my company's IP agreement, but I think that might be breaking copyright...

We were just discussing this in school. (I teach, and my position is being deleted. My teaching partner and I wanted to write up what we have done with our program, particularly a simulation where the classroom is a town)
Apparently, there is a law that states that anything created in a school by a teacher is the property of the school. So, I would love to have more info on this as well.

saxon -- you may have been joking, but you have a right to publish any contract to which you are a party (provided the contract itself allows it).

It's so sad when jokes die. ::sigh::
