I'd like to formalise slightly the license I release my projects under. At the moment it's 'free to use, modify, distribute and relicense'.

Hi. I''ve written an application and I want to incorporate a license code into it. I want to do something like this: 1. Included in my software will be an application that when the user runs it, it returns the serial number of the CPU, or harddrive or something. 2. They send that number to me. 3. Based on that number, i create a license code from that, and send it to them. 4. They enter the code into a file.

Hi hi everyone. We have upgraded our DB2 LUW 8.2.1 which was directly installed from our DB2 CD's to DB2 LUW 8.2.6 (FP13). (system: HP DL385 (AMD64), single socket, dual core. 8GB memory. SLES 10. NetApp FAS250 storage array). This went quite well, but it rendered our permanent (legal) DB2 license invalid, and I can see of no way to get our environment up and running with FP13 installed.
