Hi all !

For those still having doubts about licensing, here's the answer I got directly from Apple Licensing a couple months ago.

Seems pretty clear: WO 5.3+ deployment is free.

(My question is below their answer)

Cheers !

Frank,
Here's the response I received:

" Yes, we can confirm they do not need to purchase a deployment
license
for 5.3.x. Deployment rights are granted "for free" according to the
terms in the Xcode license agreement shipped with Xcode 2.3. This
only applies to 5.3+, not 5.2."

Xcode 2.3 is now available at:

Subject: WO Deployment

Hi !

I'm a Mac-fan, IT-Manager in a Windows/Linux-only place (HP/IBM/Epson/
Lexmark/Acer Service center).

I've managed to have the bosses buy me a PowerBook but so far haven't
been able to sell them on an XServe. I'm transitioning most Windows
things to linux though, which is a start.

I've been asked to create an application to store customer
warranties, to be used by windows/linux clients and ultimately the
web. I'm competing with MS Access / SQL Server here.

I've created the DB in MySQL and have started coding with PHP.
However I miss my EOModeler and WebObjects terribly. PHP with
TextWrangler works but is a pain when you're used to Apple-style
development.

I was looking into NetBeans when I remembered WO is included in
Tiger. I launched XCode and indeed had a working prototype connecting
to my DB in a few minutes.

I'd love to continue along this path, but before going further, I
must start thinking about deployment. It seems I need a license?

So here is my question: what license(s) would I need for the
following options:

1/ a java application installed on client machines (Windows), talking
directly to MySQL
2/ a java application installed on client machines (Windows) talking
to a Linux application server (Apache/Tomcat/Whatever)
3/ web clients talking through HTML to a Linux application server
(Apache/Tomcat/Whatever)
4/ a java applet talking to a Linux application server (Apache/Tomcat/
Whatever)
5/ other possibilities ?

I'm trying to find the lowest possible cost solution which will allow
me to prove we should be investing more in Mac.

Thanks !
