This is very interesting. Perhaps BMC is finding formal license issuance and enforcement (for user licenses, that is) too costly?

Looks like in the user tool, admin console, you can add/remove licenses. There is a license string, key, and product that you define. Not sure how these look on a licensed server though. I know through discussions that you will be able to define a max for licenses other than arserver (which requires a valid key) without providing a key. By self-enforce, I assume that they mean not abusing the ability to extend the max licenses beyond what you are entitled to use.
