Hmm, all the work you would do in your 'own time' would be owned (copyright-wise) by your employer then anyway, unless you'd explicitly excluded that in your contract. This is tricky part of the (Dutch) law, where the all work you do owned by your employer if it's the same kind of work you're employed to do.

- kilian 16y agoActually, that link says it only applies for work done on company time, not outside of it.
- roel_v 16y agoNo, this is not true. The link you post itself indicates otherwise. It is also in contrast with the Auteurswet. What is true is that an employer becomes copyright holder of any work done for that employer, as part of the employment contract. No further contractual agreement is necessary.
- eelco 16y agoI stand corrected. There are some edge cases though. Here's a case (from the same site) what can happen (again, in Dutch): http://blog.iusmentis.com/2008/03/08/in-eigen-tijd-gemaakte-software-kan-toch-van-uw-baas-zijn/ http://blog.iusmentis.com/2008/03/08/in-eigen-tijd-gemaakte-...
