Jim and Gary, thanks for your hints. Maybe I'm unnecessarily nervous. I'm still working on a good definition for "enough" testing around the intended use, and to what level of detail the intended use needs to be described. With your comments, I'm more confidently facing the FDA- challenge now with what we have. Now I'm curious on the auditor's feedback - only a few weeks left :-) Not to forget: Many thanks for the effort to all of you who make this tool, Cygwin, working. It's not so easy to make my company give something in return, but one day I will. So long, Jan. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jim Drash [mailto:jim DOT drash AT gmail DOT com] > Sent: Montag, 11.
