Licensing Question

Hi,

I personally haven't been involved in purchasing a PH license for a
while, but one of my colleagues has received a quote from IBM and it
is for a license per 'named' developer.

If I understand what my colleague has told me the licensing structure
is now only for a development license and there is then no need for a
'Production' license.

In the past one would buy a Full License for the Development machine
and a Runtime (maybe with reporting) for the Production box and I
believe there was no limitation on the number of users.

I know I can talk to IBM support, but could anyone explain the new
licensing model or point me in the direction of where I can read about
it? I do not want to run the risk of only buying X number of
development licenses, but finding I might need X + Y and it causing me
problems which take time to resolve.

Many thanks and thanks again for the continued messages about the
Linux migration.
