Charlie...the confusion for me is the line above ..."(which can be deployed for free in production except for commercial, hosting, and redistribution use)...". To me "production" generally means "commercial" with the exception of putting an app into production in your own office for internal use. I just think there needs to be a VERY clear seperation there and IMHO that line is not straightforward ;-) I'd also say the "hosting" bit is a tad vague. I'm sure you mean ISPs can't use it to host their customers sites. It could me mistaken for "hosting an app in production" ;-) my 2 cents from the side lines Cheers Bryan Stevenson B.Comm.
