Hi All,

A few weeks ago I posted about some troubles I was having regarding 
compensation arrangement with a long time client. I received many helpful 
replies, so thanks to all who shared their thoughts.  I did open a dialog with 
my client and things are going quite well. We are still working out some of the 
details, but it looks like we will be able to reach an agreement that will be 
equitable to both of us.

I would now like to have a more formal contract signed between me and the 
client such that I can protect my software. It was always understood that I 
retained copyright and ownership of the software (i.e. client was merely 
licensing it). I would now like to get that understanding in writing.  Does 
anyone have a standard contract that they use which has a similar clause in it. 
Basically, I'm looking for some kind of contract that would:

1) State that I retain ownership and copyright to the software.
2) That they cannot take the software and modify it, distribute it, etc.
3) Other important things that I'm not thinking of. :-)

If anyone can give me a basic contract that they use (remove all references to 
your personal entity, of course), I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Peter
