hi
if someone writes a technical publication in his free time into a magazine, does he/she has to ask for a permission from his employer to publish? does the employer own the rights of the engineer's publications? (i think my job contract says they do. isn't it illegal?) i think i am not at the preference of them to write any publications, so maybe they would publish my writing with someone else's name, or deny to give me the permission for publishing. i think its better to prepare for all cases.
how is it at other companies?
