IIUC we're talking about an extra service that needs to be installed along with the Meridio server being accessed. We could treat that as a system dependency just like we treat Meridio itself. The only problem then would be for end users who want to use the connector to figure out the licensing terms under which they can use this extra component. Since we can't distribute it from Apache, it needs to be made available from somewhere else preferably with good enough licensing documentation. ManifoldCF can then point to that location from the connector documentation. BR, Jukka Zitting
