Hi All

>"What is the Standard Edition?"
Single processor, Single instance, multiple domains, approx 50
connections at one time load (there is no number limit as for users,
just a number based on test loads)

>"What is the Professional Edition?"
Multi Processor, Multi instance, Multi domain, since you can run
multiple instances on the same multi processor server you can handle
much greater loads, a Korean company with Pro got up to 1500
simultaneous connections

Subject: Witango-Talk: Witango License Questions

We have a Mac running Tango 2000 and I want to upgrade the license to
Witango 5, (on windows) so I was trying to figure out if there was a
"cross-grade" option.  I didn't find anything, but since the cost for
the
Mac App server Standard Edition, and the Windows App Server Standard
Edition
were the same, I thought that the good folks at With would probably
accomodate us.  Any thoughts or comments on this, please let me know.

Now, for the real reason I'm writing this email.

When researching the cross-grade issue I came across the Witango FAQ's
again.  I remember reading them a while back to see what license type we
would be needing in our "small webshop" environment.

When you read the first two questions below, "What is the Standard
Edition?", and "What is the Professional Edition?" (the two questions
that
I've read before)  You learn that the difference between the two
versions
is, one supports multiple cpus, and the other doesn't. (see faq's below)

Now, I just happened to see the third question below... "What licenses
can
we host with?" so I read the answer. (see below)  So, if I'm reading
this
right, the difference between STD and PRO is a little more than just
single/multi cpu support.  So, a small web development company with a
single
cpu machine, and sites for 2 or more of it's clients on that single
machine
need to purchase a PRO license?  Has this been in the license agreement
since the days of Pervasive?

Could someone please shed some light on this for me?  Distributer?
Reseller?
With Ent.?

Witango's FAQs quoted below for clarity
---------------------------------------

What is the Standard Edition ?
The Standard edition server is capable of supporting an unrestricted
number
of users on a single machine, only 1 CPU used effectively. This license
can
only be used on a single processor machine.

What is the Professional Edition ?
The Professional edition server allows an unlimited number of Standard
servers on the same machine taking advantage of multi-CPU hardware.

What licenses can we host with ?
You will be able to host web sites with Professional edition licenses.
Hosting with Standard edition licenses will be only be permitted where
the
hosting service on that machine is dedicated to a single corporate
entity.
