[hackerspaces] Liability Wavers and insurance on wiki

The http://hackerspace.org/wiki/Documentation has a fair section on Bylaws and Regulations, with about 14 spaces sharing theirs (or links to theirs are posted here).
On the other hand there is one template Release of Liability Form - that deals with Member, but not a visitor, or a not-adult.
Are there other liability wavers anyone would care to share?  Some people mentioned in another thread they require everyone to sign one as they walk in.

The Insurance page gives a bit more background, linking to some threads in this list.  Getting the right description of the space, that fits a box the insurance company can deal with (by offering a policy, not turning you away, or running away themselves), seems to be very important.

btw... "Self Made in Hawaii", a local cable show, did a segment on MauiMakers. It was very well shot and edited.... and ends with perhaps the best reason for joining a hackerspace.
