Hello Larry and y'all, > Will this be one application on one server > or 500 separate installations.
There are 500 schools that want to use FreeGUI, but the number of licences is another matter. My hypothesis is that each school will want at least one licence so that the school's techie-person can edit scripts longer than 10/20 lines. Maybe more than one for the schools who can afford it. OTOH, maybe not one-per-school if the schools organize themselves whereby one scriptor handles several schools. The gist of it is that there will be as many MC or RR licences sold as there technies wishing to script some scripts longer than the script-limit of the Starter Kit; otherwise, they will surely opt for a free Starter Kit. > If it's the latter I assume that the customer > will have to pay for 500 engine licenses, correct? Each participating school will purchase as many as they see fit for their independent programming needs. > The GUI may be free but doesn't the > engine have to be paid for? The Starter-Kit's only limitation is in the length of the scripts that one can edit. Check out its licencing if you are not entirely convinced that my approach is 100% legitimate. > I know some development tools specifically > state you can't develop a product that is > basically the same as the development tool. Runtime Revolution, for example. ;-) > Does that apply in this case? Runtime's Revolution licencing does not apply in this case because FreeGUI has been specifically granted an exception from this clause by Kevin himself (the kind CEO of Runtime, of course). Besides, FreeGUI has not been adapted yet to run on Rev, albeit it will be soon. > Larry Huisingh Chug a chug a chug .. choo! choo!
