Class II service, the words 'Class II service' in Rule 8 (2) of the Haryana Service of Engineers Class I P.W.D. (Irrigation Branch) Rules,1964 must bear the same meaning as the expression 'Class II service' as defined in Rule 2 (5). The artificial definition of 'Class II service' introduced by amendment of Rule 2 (5) in 1975 was obviously to bring persons who were not Assistant Engineers i.e. members of Class II service within the zone of consideration for purposes of promotion the post of Executive Engineer under Rule 6 (b) of Class I Rules, Ashok Gulati v. B.S. Jain, 1986 Supp SCC 597: (1987) 1 SCR 603: AIR 1987 SC 424 (431)....

Goods
Goods, Computer programs are the product of an intellectual process, but once implanted in a medium they are widely distributed to computer owners. An analogy can be drawn to a compact-disc recording of an orchestral rendition. The music is produced by the artistry of musicians and in itself is not a 'good', but when transferred to a laser-readable disc it becomes a readily merchant-able commodity. Similarly, when a professor deliv-ers a lecture, it is not a good, but, when transcribed as a book, it becomes a good. That a computer program may be copyrightable as intellectual property does not alter the fact that once in the form of a floppy disc or other medium, the program is tangible, moveable and available in the marketplace. The fact that some programs may be tailored for specific purposes need not alter their status as 'goods' because the Code definition includes 'specially manufactured goods', Advent Systems Ltd. v. Unisys Corpn., 925 F. 2d 670 3dCir 1991. Associated Cement Compa...
