hmmmmmmmm... Let's see. If a company owns a database and all the source code
behind it, and they lose (because of accident or corruption or any other
reason) the development version, and they hire a company like QBuilt to
reverse engineer the database so they can have a new development copy, I
would not think that is illegal. I don't know much about QBuilt, but I would
dare to say that that is the kind of service they are offering.
