		<description>Thanks for your comment, Kevin, and my apologies for taking so long to approve it and reply.

We, too, would like to be able to annotate templates, and it&#039;s on the list of features we&#039;ll eventually develop for the site. For now, please be sure to consult the Guidelines for each contract, as they should address some of your questions.

No contract will be appropriate for everyone or for all situations, so we hope people will consult a lawyer to edit them as needed.

We likely won&#039;t pursue a forms approach (Creative Commons has a far simpler list of options than even just one type of contract we hope to cover would require), but I&#039;ve made note of your feedback and we&#039;ll see how things evolve.</description>

		<description>This projects is a really awesome idea, but it would be nice if the templates were annotated more for both parties to the agreement. Since it&#039;s likely that neither party using these agreements will seek council, there should be more explanation of what is being traded.

This employment contract for example, waives all moral rights, which may be appropriate for some, but for others may go way, way, too far.

I&#039;d also put a feature request in for a more web 2.0-ish forms approach, where the contract is built from a series of checkboxes of inclusions, with each option clearly explained. Something along the lines of how the creative commons license drafting service works. 

Good luck with it guys!</description>
