Chris,
I absolutely agree!
I would suggest that any template, however good, will only ever
get you to the first draft stage and then it will be over to the
lawyers for some project-specific input.
Of course the other proviso with our template is that is unabashedly
aimed at the HE and FE sector's needs and requirements so any NOF
project will need to take this into account.
cheers
