[consulting] Contract protection clause

[netsperience]

  In my contracts and proposals I state that the client is fully 
licensed to use the Drupal core and contributed modules code under the GPL

I would further interpret that any custom modules I add to the project 
that work with the Drupal framework could fall under the same GPL

It's also important to carefully read the contract provided by a client, 
I often annotate it when it states that client will "own" the code with 
a reference to the GPL: http://www.gnu.org/licenses/

When I explain the reasons, and how the client is benefiting from the 
open source code we are using that was created by others, it is usually 
not a problem.

The point in question seems to be more about intellectual property, 
probably from a client who recently saw "The Social Network" :)
