A little education on licensing...

A friend of a friend is an inventor who has someone who wants to partner/buy the inventor's invention.

The inventor wants to know how to find examples of contracts so he can educate himself on the issues that must be addressed.

Reading the full text of the agreements is no way for an inventor to educate himself!

I have a cache online of checklists, papers, presentations, guidelines and the like on licensing. Though much of it is life-sciences-centric, the issues apply pretty much across the board, with things like the warranties, allocation of risk &c. varying somewhat, depending on the industry.
