I think he did fear exactly that. We have settled everything to our mutual satisfaction (short of signing the deed). He gets to use the existing code for other projects (non-competative in our market), and we get to take full ownership of the code/site after it is updated. He signed his latest email with the comment "Thanks for being so cool guys." :) Just got the full proposal from the new developer this afternoon. The existing code is fine the way it is, and will simply be added to. Are you getting my mail before I do Ross?
yes, your programmer was very unwise to have built what he did without any contract - has he no fear of lawsuits? maybe his programmimg can survive all future upgrades, maybe the next developer doesn't need to touch it?
