- 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.

read the 'but may at its discretion' part... perhaps we should remove the
'...and does not violate any of the restrictions imposed by the donor."
part?
