However, I don't think this should stop us raising legitimate concerns about licensing. From the evidence so far, ActiveState *have* thought about these issues, and have adopted a reasonable approach to the marketplace. Quoting from David Ascher: """ > > Educational license - Komodo is free for educational and > > NON-COMMERCIAL purposes.

""" This is also pretty unusual for a commercial product, so I think ActiveState are doign everything they can to allow Komodo use on a free (as in beer) basis. More strength to their arms. I had avoided going beyond the first beta release because I had not known about this license. I may even start using it again now. regards Steve
