Agreed. With Domino, i'm sure they can develop something to report the
usage up to i5/OS, but with third party/user written apps that model
doesn't fit.

I think honor system is the way to go at first anyway... this will all be a
very new way of looking at usage/cost for many customers. According to the
IBMers at Common that I talked with, there is a lot to be learned on their
end as well about how customers will really use this and respond to it. It
sounds like we may be seeing that flexibility already... still haven't seen
any official word, though.

but it would probably be tough to
see that bubble up to the i5/OS level from Domino

Perhaps "tough" for Domino, but downright impossible from other
technologies. Take a web-application that's using a connection-pool with
a half-dozen connections (with the same user id) to service hundreds or
thousands of "real" users. There's no way they could count the actual
users from a technological point of view. I don't see any way to do this
but the honor system.
