I have looked a bit at the contracts-system on sisi and I'm glad to hear it is work in progress.  However it does look promising!
Something my colleuge Amarria Lightwalker already has brought up however is that the contracts as they are now would hurt NAGA bad since we deliver our orders by means of the escrow system. Only being able to issue one single private contract without skills, and a maximum of 15 at level 5 is a real punch in the guts! My alt used for escrowing stuff has had more than twice that active already today... So having unlimited personal escrows are definetley something that would be nice! They don't clutter the public escrow window for others anyhow.
A function I would like to have would be if we could set up a contract through a link in the IGB. Would love the possibility to fill in which type, receiver for a private contract, comment and the isk wanted/offered field and duration. Item selection through a link might be a bit harder, but wanted items should be possible to fill in.
Also, the possibility to use shift-click to select a bunch of modules in the list for escrow would be nice.
Oh and one more thing! Make the window not block the entire UI so that I can use the other windows at the same time!

Last time I checked, private contracts only had a practical limit (50 or sth), not skill based.
For a minute there I thought I had imagined it all, but no... Strangely enough I can issue two private contracts (item exchange) but when trying to create a third I get this message:
Quote:
You have reached the maximum number of contracts you can create
for your skill level (1).
Either delete one of your outstanding contracts or wait for it to
expire before continuing. Note that expired contracts still have to be
completed by you before you can create a new contract.
You might be able to increase your level in the skill Contracting in
order to have more concurrent outstanding contracts.

Came up with an improvement for the contrats system last night that would make my life a lot easier:
"Renegotiable" contracts, would work something like this:
A customer places a buy contract for 10 items and offer 10M isk.
Unfortunatley there only is 9 of the items in stock, so I offer 9 of them and also 1M isk to compensate for the missing item.
Since the contract was renegotiated by me it does not complete at once, insted the buyer now gets the contract back and can either accept the offer (pay 10M get 1M back and 9 of the items) or decline (voiding the contract, gets 10M back and I get my stuff and 1M back (minus broker fees etc ofc))
I would also imagine that all of the time the contract is registered to the buyer and uses one of his/her slots.
So, do anyone (apart from me) think this would be a good idea?
