For the purposes of this agreement, "equipment" is understood to mean
any physical or monetary asset that is given, transferred or
otherwise donated to SPI for the purposes of furthering the SPI
effort or a SPI affiliated project.

- Any restrictions on donations or their usage must be stated at the time 
of donation. These restrictions are not subject to change after the assets 
have been transferred to SPI.

[edit of above]
- Equipment can be donated for a specific purpose.  SPI will make every 
attempt to use it for the specified purpose, but may at its discretion 
(and the discretion of the project that it was earmarked for, if 
applicable) change its use if this is deemed necessary and does not
violate any of the restrictions imposed by the donor.

For the purposes of this agreement, "service" is understood to mean
any asset which SPI has been granted use of, but does not own, for
the purposes of furthering the SPI effort or a SPI affiliated
projects. This might include, but is not limited to, donated network
bandwidth, usage of computing equipment or other physical equipment,
usage of space within a technical facility or other facility, or
services of personnel.
