The Beta versions of the Harmony contributor agreement drafts are now 
available on harmonyagreements.org. These will be open for a second 
round of public review until June 23rd. Together with the new versions, 
the site has a guide to the changes between Alpha and Beta.

Thanks for all the feedback that went into improving these drafts. 
Please keep the feedback coming. We'd especially appreciate comments on 
some of the open questions like:

- Is "Material" clearer than "Work" or more confusing? Is there a better 
word we could use?

- How do we adequately represent the set of copyleft licenses in the 
"Outbound License" section?

- Could the reciprocal nature of Option Five be made clearer?

- Are the responsibilities of the developer to the project clear enough? 
(For instance, if the project was involved in some form of litigation at 
a future date, and needed copyright holders to participate.)

- Are there additional assurances the project could give back to the 
developer? Some form of agreement not to sue the developer? Or, are the 
disclaimers and waivers enough?

Thanks!
Allison
