Re: FDA Validation a Threat to Free/OSS?

If this requirement exists, then it would apply to all operating systems in the same way. Not only the open source world would have to face validation but also the closed source vendors. This would require them to open up their sources, at least to the FDA and all client audit teams. I think they may even have bigger problems with that than the open source people. I think no OS vendor would be interested to have his operating system validated, leaving the entire industry to whoever comes up with a validated OS first.
