And of-course some countries don't honour software patents anyway. This may or may not be right in various peoples eyes, but that's the way it is. It's also nice to have a try before you buy too. And there might just be a case where you can't connect an asterisk box to the public Internet to register the licenses (I had that with HPEC some time back) Nothing to stop people wanting to clear their conscious by using the "free" one and paying for Digium licenses of-course, even if they're not actually used.. > Just my 0.02c Euro cents going by the email address :) Gordon _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
