IP, Trademark, And Patent Roadmap
Contributors must not bring employer code, private client material, hidden datasets, or unlicensed assets into Prox OS.
Roadmap
| Area | Readiness note |
|---|---|
| Domain protection | Track domain ownership, renewal, and recovery access. |
| Trademark search | Review before major public launch or fundraising. |
| EUIPO / OEPM / WIPO | Future routes for trademark protection. |
| Copyright evidence | Git history, releases, screenshots, and dated docs help evidence creation. |
| Contributor IP assignment | Needed before serious external contribution or paid work. |
| Patent | Not first priority unless there is a patentable technical invention. |
| Trade secret | Keep internal commercial war-room and sensitive docs private. |
| Public/private docs boundary | Public docs should not expose sensitive strategy. |
Clean-room Rule
