Paul,
Yes.
The Legal I was referring to is contracts
with local unions. Bonuses, and merits are based on production counts.
Production counts are collected from these machines.
I did not write the contracts, nor is
anyone from Plant Floor IT involved. As usually, we have to try and live
up to what our lawyers promise.
Thanks,

Legal ramifications? I would hope it is clear from all the documentation
that comes with the tz data, but if you are thinking of legal ramifications
you're entirely on your own. Just like any other open source effort,
there are NO warrantees in the tz project. If you need something
better than "as is, when available", you should look elsewhere.
If your execs don't understand this, please show them the relevant
disclaimers.
