  1. Re:Don't Whirl That Perl! on Virginia House Passes UCITA · · Score: 1
    And if I understand it right the software company has no obligation to guarantee that their product will work.

    Not that I agree with UCITA or anything (I don't), but... what do you think the standard shrinkwrap clause

    "...specifically disclaims any warranty with respect to merchantability ... or fitness for a particular purpose..."
    means?

    IANAL but it sounds to me like UCITA doesn't grant publishers the right to produce crappy software, it extends that right by allowing them to suppress the negative press that goes along with it.

    .sig? who needs a .sig?
