Is there anyway I could check if I signed the new agreement? I might have done it, but I want to be sure I will not run into troubles.

Hi Tom,
I agree the doc is only more thorough. I've signed it and am busy uploading new material.
However the new agreement LOOKS much less welcoming than the previous one. The contract is much longer. It has more specifics on what might cost us $$ for indemnification. Many of the sections are in all caps, like it's shouting.
Artists want to feel welcomed to the community. How many potential contributors might look at this new one and decide not to join up? There is a marketing aspect to the agreement that shouldn't be forgotten.

Apparently you haven't read to many agreements with sections in caps.
