You might want to review the case law that has built up already on this subject before you make guesses as to what might happen. Enough has happened already to suggest that your analysis above is just wrong! Indeed in one case of which I am aware, a company is arguing that a customer may not fix the Y2K problem themselves because the customer is only allowed to do maintenance, and this does not come under the definition of maintenance.
