I was talking with a friend of mine about a digital art project I was working on. The project has my name on it but I did not pay for the project, I just worked on it.

Now my friend had said that there may be new legislation on ownership of art that has either just passed or is about to pass, but for the life of me I would just like to find it. Basically is says something to the effect of "Anyone who has worked on the Piece of Art regurdless of who paid for it has ownership of that Art."

Does anyone here know anything more or have you heard of this or can you point me to it if it exists?

Thank you in advance.
