Re: The Legal Definition of Y2K Compliant... to the Federal Government

One of the speakers at the conference in NY, Jacob Pankowski, spoke at length about the what it means to be Y2K compliant. His analysis paper is entitled "The New FAR Rule on Year 2000: Uncertainty Creates Potential Problems for Contractors". It appears in the January 5, 1998 issue of Federal Contracts Report. No lawyer advising about Y2K liability should be without it (gg).

Here's the link to the actual FAR Rule. Note that it is recommended language, but, as Pankowski pointed out in his speech, many government agencies have made slight word changes that have significantly changed the meaning, so vendors to the government should insist on language similar to what is recommended here:
