This remains contradictory, and that is why I'm trying to get some clarity on the role Sue played in the past two years. The tasks described by Patricio in his response to the Signpost sound to me (but I might be naive in this) to be mostly relevant to the initial transition period, and not to span 2 years. Is Patricio underselling Sue's involvement and was there a reason not to mention her as contractor? Am I somehow misunderstanding the compensation issue (i.e. was there a compensation for earlier years, or was it lowered)?

Is compensation for earlier years legal in the US? In Ger- many, since the clarification in the Mannesmann trial (cf. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mannesmann-Prozess), this would not be possible.
