RE: Down with the GPL!

These are not junk contracts.  These intellectual property assignments are a
requirement for software companies in the US.  Without them, the software
company does not have clear title to its intellectual property so you have
to sign the contract before you can come to work.

Disclaimer: I'm not a lawyer and I don't live in a country where people
have to sign such junk contracts to get paid and work in a productive
environment.
