I'd appreciate knowing how other universities are handling contract clauses
re. Year 2000 data transition -- as the following --

"Contractor warrants all products, reports, or data furnished or developed
under this Agreement will, without human intervention, correction, or
upgrade: a) perform an uninterrupted transition into the year 2000 with the
correct system day and date and without adverse effect on normal opperation
or feature, function, and performance; and b) correctly recognize,
interpret, process (including calculate, sort, compare, and sequence),
display, store, import, and export all date and date-dependent data
(including leap-year calculations) from, into, and between the 20th and
21st centuries. Contractor agrees to correct, at no additional cost, all
defects and nonconformities within 90 days of notification with regard to a
breach of the foregoing warranty."

I don't think we can agree to warrant reports or data produced NOW to make
"an uninterrupted transition" into the year 2000. Has anybody else seen
similar language and how are you handling it?

Thanks,
