After those who have to keep the machines running, citing the AUP as the reason of course, refuse to work on those machines they don't have permission to look at. Maybe systems people need "HIPPA" forms from every patient?

If the AUP were to be interpreted to mean one can't look at system event logs then every request for repair or help will have to result in a wipe and reload. Just like the standard last result of most manufacturer help desks. Common sense has to come in to the picture somewhere. 

Does the AUP committee have any techs, who have to live with the restrictions of the AUP, on it?

I would like to invite Mr. Hall to attend that meeting. The next NAG meeting
would be the logical place to continue this interrogation, I mean
discussion.
Anyone know if/when the AUP revisions will be adopted?
