The legal flex is that contractually all work during work times is the company's IP. While the library I built has helped our company it isn't our product and it isn't my job. What I do for a salary is build our product not build this library. On a human moral level I would personally give my subordinate the right to open source the library because it was purely his creation.
As for what I could be subject to, could this be considered discussing publicly private company information?
- joezydeco 4y agoBoeing sells airplanes. But they also make countless thousands of highly customized tools, physical and virtual, to help build that product and get it out the door. Almost none of them ship with the planes. But every single one of them belongs to Boeing and not you, Airbus, or anyone else. I'd take a breather on this and get some perspective. Your boss is acknowledging that the work is useful and that's a start. Just relax. I'm curious what your rush is to get it public other than it being "neat".
