Indeed. While we didn’t get to discuss this on the call today as we ran out of time, I think it’s a no-brainer that it should be added to the license list and that aspect probably does not need discussion :) If there is some oddity as to how it gets added due to the Exhibit (which I admittedly, have not investigated/thought about thoroughly yet), that needs to be addressed.
but it would be good to have some assurance that this is the actual and final text of the 2.0 version… !!!
