We would like to know what are the legal boundaries, when using OpenEMR. We are not just talking about GPL license, but we are referring to the changes.
Lets assume that we have the chance to change the code of a program and suddenly the program crashes or a user is not satisfied from that change, is that our responsibility or the program’s it self?
Could you provide us with a documentation for the answer?
I don’t think you will get qualified legal advice here. Suggest you find an attorney who understands open source.
But I will say it’s unfortunate that the U.S. does not have a “loser pays” system, so usually when there’s a lawsuit everybody loses except the lawyers. There is no substitute for doing careful work and keeping your clients involved in the process.
