Ah, tricky! In the meantime, thogh, Iwas able to get a new eval key.
We're having a meeting on Thursday where hopefully I can convince people
at my company that this is the thing to do.

I don't like limited versions...what about the guy who is working on a
big open source project? I wonder if you simply keep track of their
email and ip if that is enough. That is, if options are open, I would
hope that most companies would be honest and play by the rules, but I
wouldn't be surprised if I found out otherwise. But many corporations do
have whole auditing efforts around this and are very careful to stay
within terms. We're mulling the same thing for a more public release of
some of the stuff we're doing -- how do you get the people (say
researchers and hobbyists) to be able to use your tools without allowing
corporations to get off scot free. Its a hard one.
