I mailed Dion Johnson at SCO again re the license issue, with no reply. I tried some other SCO contacts, and got this back from Peter Laytham: Unfortunately this is always a busy time for SCO folk - September is our end of financial year, which means October and November are given over to planning and regional kick-off events including training (which Dion gets involved in). If you can bear with us, we are both submitting your case to the powers that be within SCO. However SCO has a fair bit of other work to cope with keeping the evil empire at bay and rolling out some significant new technologies (SVr5, Tarantella and two clustering products - reliantHA and Non-stop for UnixWare) which is slowing down non critical decisions such as this one. Cheers Peter So it looks like we're in for some more waiting. Sorry for the lack of change in status, Warren
