I have a question in to them about how that floating licensing works, though. Does that mean that with every call a license check must be made? I don't see how it would work otherwise, and that means my whole business - every call - is dependant on their license server being up and reachable. I also don't think that the slight added convenience is then worth the recurring cost annually. The price of the license is comparable to Digium in US dollars. So the only advantage I really see is the optimization claims - you might be able to squeeze more calls into one box. Would love to hear of any real world experiences, though I guess we will have to wait a bit for that ;) j _______________________________________________ -- 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
