My understanding on the compliance was the same... best effort for now and
no 'enforcement' on the system. We counted users from a number of
different angles when determining the licenses needed (5250, web, Domino)
and it was tricky, but I think we came up with a valid count.

My understanding is is that they are. I have had my head in development
projects for the past couple of months so I haven't had time to poke
around in the IBM Business Partner website to see what is new. I pulled
most of the stuff I posted from various PowerPoint presentations that
IBM has given to BP's over the past year.

Compliance won't be automated for quite some time. All of this would be
devilishly difficult to programmatically handle. But IBM reserves the
right to audit your license compliance and I would expect that process
would be a manual one for the time being.

All good explanations Pete! I wonder if IBM is working on some type of
mechanism that would help users with license compliance given all these
scenarios... or even scenarios like running Domino servers under i5/OS
and
counting those users. Would probably take a release or two of all
products
involved to get the necessary 'hooks' written in.
