Re: Foundations & Indirect Cost Pam Caudill 14 Mar 2000 13:44 EST

We have been discussing something similar, but we were planning on also
including information of the foundation's IP policy. It seems that more and
more foundations are requesting some type of royalty sharing.  We were
planning on developing a database or website where we could see what the
policies are and whether or not the terms are acceptable.  This would help
out at the big deadlines when we can't spare the time to look them up and
negotiate them individually.

I would be happy to help in any group effort.
