"The purpose of the federal database is to share vendor compliance information. Initially it was developed for federal government use only. In January or so of this year the federal government opened access to all. It has the usual disclaimers on the accuracy of the data but the database contains a large amount of information and has a great search engine. The web site address is: http://y2k.policyworks.gov/. Another good web site is the State of Washington's. They also maintain a vendor compliance database. The Washington web site address is: http://www.wa.gov/dis/2000/y2000.htm"
