Yves, There is a part I left out that would prohibit him from harassing them. I can't post that but suffice it to say it is not worth it for him to play hardball with them. That same reason is why I only told him to chalk it up to lessons learned but to go back at least and try one more time to negotiate a settlement and if they balk then just walk away. Now I wouldn't call the school disho9nest but more ignorant where they have no clue on Intellectual Property or contractual arrangements for technology. It is nothing for them (elementary school/High School personnel) to copy copyrighted software or xerox workbooks and think nothing of it. So I don't think they did this maliciously.

I'd write up an invoice and send it every month, phone, harass them, until they pay. I've had customers forgetting to pay, and even let it go when it was small amounts (writing it off as marketing / customer relationship), but if somebody makes me jumps through hoops and is blatantly dishonest and try not to pay me on purpose, then I will put in time and efforts to try to get make them pay. This has happened twice, and in the end they paid just to get me off their back. -- Yves. http://www.SollerS.ca/ xmpp:y...@zioup.com _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
