Trade secrets.

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on September 20, 2004 05:39 AM

Connolly does mention trade secrets, however, the contract Connolly claims Sakic agreed to was the following email:

<TT>I hereby state to complete the programming project for literatigroup.com under the following terms:

- Project consists of various modifications and customizations of Mambo Open Source CMS for the client [redacted]

- Project will be completed latest 20. september 2003 - Client will pay [redacted] US deposit and [redacted] US upon finished project

- Upon finished project all copyright rights to code written by me will belong to literatigroup.com Emir Sakic </TT>

If Connolly's claims are truthful then the contract did not include an NDA so Connelly's trade secret claims have no basis (though I am not a lawyer).
