From what I know, the new licensing is available through PassPort Advantage

(not AAS) and is for 1 year term licenses (either authorized user or

If you go to the RD Power product site
(http://www-01.ibm.com/software/rational/products/rdp/), you can click on
the Ready to Buy button to see all the options and their prices.

Bless you Eric!

Do you know where I would find an explanation of the differences between
the following two options? I left off the floating licence versions - I
think I can work that one out :-)

IBM Rational Developer for Power System RPG and COBOL Development Tools
for i Authorized User License + SW Subscription & Support 12 Months
(D0C5FLL) $886.00

IBM Rational Developer for Power System RPG and COBOL Development Tools
for i Authorized User Initial Fixed Term License + SW Subscription &
Support 12 Months (D0LJVLL) $416.00

Answering my own question: there is a link at the bottom of the page
explaining licences.

Fixed-term licences expire at the end of the contract which is usually
12 months). The other licence never expires. Although one might want
to pay money to buy a licence to a hypothetical follow-on product.
