Re: subscription for maya on linux
Yes, good point Raffaele. We've talked about doing it that way too. On 10/19/2014 4:49 PM, Raffaele Fragapane wrote: BTW you don't need to be able to run Maya to compile something for it. As long as you have the linux header and lib includes you can compile away. Whether there are licensing issues with that, or you might be bothered by the fact you won't be able to test the build if you can't run Maya, well... that's a different thing :)

Re: subscription for maya on linux
You can register a brand new student/mentor license in linux without issues, it just works, there might be issues when transferring/reactivating an existing license though (and no one at support seems to know how their licensing system works in linux, ie request code vs long_code xml file and so on).
