I think this discussion is very useful.  However, it is surely beyond the
purview of the Open Source Initiative to provide legal solutions for
potential warranty liability.

On the other hand,  this work does need to be done.  And it needs to be done
by a combination of lawyers and open source developers.  But the issues are
much more legally complex than the discussions that have occured on this
list.
