Doesn't seem unusual that you can only copywrite the expression and not the idea, its like saying Pepsi can't make cola as Coca Cola was there before and it would be no different then a Builder learning the trade at a Company then going it alone.
I say fill your boots, if it works it should be in demand, how are you marketing this? I know of a few co's that would be interested.

It's nothing to do with financial markets, that was just an example. It is an HR product and I am hving to sort out the legal stuff before I sign a licensing agreement which is being offered. I may have to go it alone if the IPO stuff looks shaky.

If that's a demonstration of your IT skills it does not bode well.
