So if I only work on this separate from my employer's equipment,
facilities and time, you believe I am ok, and I can sign the
copyright waiver as myself. I don't believe my employer has
jurisdiction over what I do when I am not working for them.
o I own my own equipment,
o I pay for my own telecommunication costs,
o I own and manage my own domain and local area network (local to the
5 computers below my desk).
o I manage my own time away from my employer's facility. In fact,
my wife manages my time, but perhaps that's not relevant to this
discussion.
