Without a contract this could definately become a sticking point. I would think it would come down to the implied contract that you and the client verbally had or via email. If you told them you would put together a site for $500 and you hinted that it was already built or generic by nature, you would essentially be selling them the use of a canned application. If you charged them $3-20k for a solution that took you weeks or more to build, they may assume you are building them a custom application that they are paying 100% for and will own.
The people I know that have done similar content management systems attempt to own their systems and the client owns almost nothing. Of course, the client pays only a fraction of the total development costs also (and it is explicitly stated in the contract). ========================================================= Kansas City ColdFusion User Group's website & listserv is hosted through the generous support of Clickdoug.com To send email to the list, email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe or unsubscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with your request.
