How do you go about creating the contracts?

Participants follow a structured workflow that begins with identifying the type of contract that will be created. Through several detailed steps, contributors determine what needs to be covered by the contract, they write and edit the contract, then after it's reviewed and approved, they publish the contract for all to use. Each participant fills one or more particular roles, such as managing editor, legal drafter, technical writer, or style editor.
