Hey Eric, the only issue would be around the use of RTMP, which is what we allude to in the link Dominick passed along. It's legal for you to use Red5, and our methods of discovery to recreate the RTMP protocol are all documented and completely legal.
Adobe has never endorsed or "ok'd" us, or OpenAMF or AMFPhp, however, it seems clear that they embrace some of it. They've published articles on usage of AMFPHP on their site, they're actually VERY involved in Open Source efforts and promote a pretty healthy existence with OS tools and technologies. FMS is a fine product and they offer support, so that's something to consider. Red5 is still in Beta (v0.6 Rc2 is due out Feb12th), and largely untested and we're hoping that v0.6 final will be the version we can finally put some performance numbers to. I hope this helps Eric, John On 2/8/07, Eric Goulet <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Paul, Thanks for the light. Our interrogations come from the fact that we plan to sell our product to our clients and we want to make sure it is legal for us to use your soft. Anyway, thanks for your help. If you have any other information regarding legal aspect that could help us more, it would be kind to communicate them to us.

The bottom line is that if you feel that you are in the wrong you should bite the bullet and just pay for FMS. Paul On 2/8/07, *Eric Goulet* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi! Thanks for the reference, we'll check it out. But, according to you, do you think it is legal for us to use Red5 to build up our application instead of using FMS? Do you think we might get in trouble with Adobe for that?

Some weeks ago, we downloaded and installed Red5 to test it and we highly appreciated it! It's a nice product that has a lot of potential and we would like to use it in the future. My question is about the RTMP protocol. Can we develop our Red5 server to communicate with our platform without getting in trouble with Adobe. We heard different versions regarding the legal aspect of the RTMP protocol. Could you give us more information about that point?
