I thought i had seen a web page with more about what independent meant but now i can't find anything other than this email from a wiki edit which says: "The legal definition of independent is long and boring, but basically it means that there is no binding relationship between the individuals, such as a shared employer, that is capable of overriding their free will as individuals, directly or indirectly." - http://marc.info/?l=incubator-cvs&m=106976845317594&w=2 ...ant
