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

More strength to their arms. I had avoided going beyond the firstbeta release because I had not known about this license. I may even startusing it again now.regards Steve
