I'm looking for a commonly-accepted definition of GA in software. I'm
thinking General Availability means:

- The product provides promised features/functionality.
- The product has been tested.
- No known priority 1 or 2 defects exist.
- The company selling the software accepts some liability for the
product and affords some level of support based on the promised
features/functionality.

The audience is not the legal community.

Thanks in advance.
