BETTER NEWS.
I just go off the phone with Dan D'Alesio who is a real lawyer who does real defense of the University of Florida.? ?
He was VERY helpful, very honest.? ?20 years with the JAG (armed forces legal) and approx 20 years with UF?
There is a way that we can "cover" a modest number of key people by having them fill out a form or two and become "volunteers" for the University of Floirda -- then their work will be defended by, any legal costs, any judgements paid by -- the university of florida, which has HUGE defense capability under the PREP act which has successfully been used before (gives Federal immunity) and also through good samaritan and also through Univresity of Florida sovereign immunity.? ?You can't be sued individually,, they have to sue the Board of Trustees of Florida -- and you will merely need to help their lawyers.??
That is very good news.
Limitation:? ?It does not protect you for OTHERS reading here to see what you ahve come up with -- so I suggest that we may need to state plainly that we do NOT give permisson for anyone to use anything we create here -- they are completely on their own, we m\ake NO warranty -- brighter minds may need to address that.....it appears to be outside the scope of jurisdiction of Dan D'Alesio as an officer of the university of Florida.? ?If we can't get around that -- we can find a way for you to communicate ONLY with each other and with the University of Florida.
Folks, I'm not good with names..... Here are thepeopel that *I* recognize as needing to consider becoming a "volunteer" for the University of Florida to contineu-- IF YOU ARE CONTRIBUTING AND I MISS YOUR NAME PLEASE DO NOT TAKE OFFENSE AND INSTEAD IMMEDIATELY REPLY HERE AND EXPLAIN HOW YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED.? ? I am going to submit an initial list of "prospective volunters" to Mr. D'Aleasio in TEN MINUTES? so please reply quickly -- or we may be able to add you later.
Bob?? KD8CGH -- 3d printed valves
Dr William Schmidt -- flow designs
Ashhar Farhan -- schematic printed circuit board, software
Marcelo Veranda -- code!!!!
Jack Purdum -- code!!!!
Shane Kent -- updated designs
Dominick Textor -- valves
I don't think we can include MANUFACTURERS creating their own product -- instead we provide them a way forward by getting a EUA that they can "piggyback" with their own "me, too!" EUA using all of this work.
whom else to be added to those to be approached????
THANKS?
