> Y Combinator is going to open source their angel money paperwork, to make it easier for "rich hackers" to invest.

Wow, that would be a great help to a lot of people. Any thoughts on when this will occur?

Within the next month, I hope.

Is this going to be limited to standard paperwork for investments, or are you going to release standard paperwork for other things as well (e.g., startup incorporation, NDAs, etc.)?

Would be nice if I could pay $395 for a startup legal kit that I knew other startups actually used. Put paperwork for incorporation, funding, NDAs, employee ownership stuff, etc. Then when I wanted to hire someone and give him 6% of the company, I could just do it, without a bunch of lawyers.

Just a thought if you wanted to make some money whether we succeed or not.
