[PLUG] OT: Signing an NDA/Invention Assignment agreement

[Randall Sindlinger <rsindlin@gmail.com>]

Hey Folks,

I imagine a number of you have dealt with NDAs before.  I don't
remember the last time I needed to think about this.  Now I suddenly
have one to sign by Monday.

What are the gotchas I should be aware of?  And what about the
Invention Assignment part of this?  I have some (I think) patentable
ideas, and I've even mused about writing a movie script. _I_ don't
think it's "relevant to the subject matter of my employment" but
should I be concerned?  Are there any horror stories?

Should I be asking for recommendations for an attorney?

Thanks all,
-Randall
