Re: License keys

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Marco

That doesn't line up with my understanding - this page describes the 
kinds of licensing for Rational products -

http://www-01.ibm.com/software/rational/howtobuy/licensing/

That page says that we can choose between "an Authorized User license, 
an Authorized User Fixed Term License (FTL) and a Floating license"

There is also this statement -

"Rational does not currently offer a Floating Fixed Term License."

These are the options when purchasing through Passport Advantage - I 
don't remember if the terms are different if purchased through a BP 
using eConfig or whatever tool is in use now.

There's more on that page, and it does clarify things.
