I have a real problem with this. First of all, I do not recall this being in any license agreement I have already entered into with RunRev although I have not had time to check. If that is the case, the change is being made ex-post-facto and probably can not be enforced against early adopters (people who entered into a contract w RunRev prior to the change.)
I develop educational software to use with medical students, residents, etc. While there may be only a single copy on the server, many individuals have access to it. Ideally, it will be available to anyone who wants it hospital/medical school-wide. I am in the process of developing similar software to be distributed by the American Assn of Blood Banks. Once I deliver it to them, they make the marketing decisions. And a number of purchasers are probably going to want to use it for the same purposes I outline above. If I can not be certain that I will be adhering to the licensing agreement, I will not develop in Rev--which is a shame. Kevin, I am more than glad to carry on any further discussion off-list if you wish. However, I think that regardless of how my individual situation gets resolved, RunRev needs to reconsider this position and/or make the specific provisions clearer. Thanks.
