Re: FDA Validation a Threat to Free/OSS?

I've studied all five pages on their site. There's not much there. It appears that OSHCA has meetings, and that's it. The mailing list link shows four messages this year. Their Principles ("Promote a globally sustainable approach") are so vauge as to be meaningless. They don't link to a single Open Source project. I fail to understand why they would be helpful to the original poster.
Either there's nothing going on at OSHCA, or they aren't being very open (in which case, open source people won't and shouldn't trust them).

Indeed the honorous task of validation may be more than most small companies can handle. However, I don't for a moment believe that it is in the best interest of MSW to comply with the stringent validation guidelines defined by the FDA. Therein lies the opportunity.
In fact for a fledgling startup this may be the essential feature that distinguishes them from the competition. My group is very interested in discussing the possibilities associated with any company/group interested in marketing an Open Sourced and "validated" OS/network/service to Biotech companies.
