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.
