Re: Ending Confusion on Zend Core

["Jim Dillard" <jdillard@xxxxxxxx>]

All,

There have been posts in many different forums about whether or not Zend
Core is free.  You can cut n paste this response there if you feel this
will clear up any confusion.

"Software:  Zend Core for IBM i (also known as Zend Core for i5/OS <hear
Trevor groan as he reads "i5/OS" > ) can be installed and run for free.
Period.  

Support:  for those that downloaded Core for the first time prior to
1/1/09 you are entitled to 3 years of Silver Support (details at
http://www.zend.com/en/services/support/production-sla) and for those
that downloaded for the first time on 1/1/09 or later you are entitled
to one year of Silver support.

Obviously those of you interested in utilizing Platform, phone-based
support, training, and/or services can do so by paying Zend a fee.  I
know -- the audacity of Zend trying to generate revenue.  ;-) "

Hopefully this will end the confusion.  Email me w/ additional
questions.

Thank you!

Regards,
Jim Dillard
