Mayo received the license agreement the same day we received the note from
Charles. We have not yet decided how to handle the problem. The Library
copy is no big deal, because we have had similar agreements for some tools
in the past. However, we purchase nearly 100 copies for use around the
Clinic for various departments -- no way can we sign agreements for those.
Our legal department has agreed to examine the problem, but did not appear
hopeful.
Perhaps we could put our collective cpu's together for an alternative source
for the information?
