I actually took Ed's advice (and others' too). I originally used "verbal" because I didn't want to get you guys riled up! ;^) For those that are interested here is the language I went with: """Absence of Written Specifications Often times work is performed where there is no documentation or written specifications and authorizations to do the work are oral. In the event there is no written specification both parties will agree on a release version of the application as a benchmark of features and functionality. The source code of the agreed upon version will be considered the basis for future work on the project. All reports, forms and processes included in the application's source code will be included in the scope of this Agreement and be considered "agreed upon" by both parties."""
