-[[category:policies]]The following policy applies to all computer code I write for hire.
+This page has been moved to [[htcom:Coding policies|hypertwins.com]], our commercial site.
-Unless otherwise noted, and with the exception of code known by me to represent trade secrets or private information such as account numbers or passwords, all code written for any client is released to that client non-exclusively and may be re-used or released under a free software license at the author's discretion. Coding time billed to any client will not be re-billed to future clients who may use the same code or portions thereof.
-'''In plain English''':
-* By default, code you pay me to write is released to you non-exclusively; I may re-use such code at my discretion.
-* I will not, however, bill another client for the same code.
-* Nor will I bill you for any code that was not written specifically to meet the needs of your project. (If I make use of any pre-existing code, I will only charge for any work necessary to adapt it to your project regardless of whether the code was written by me or by someone else.)
-Also, on request, I will be happy to credit you or your company for funding development work on any code I release publicly; just let me know how you would like to be credited, and the URL for the credit to link to.
