Please do not top post. Scroll to the bottom to reply.

The answer to your question, quite frankly, is that members of this group, end-users, may have opinions about licensing but even when we are right it is meaningless as we have no idea what license agreement your management has signed. You need to take this question directly to your rep at Oracle.

<THE_QUESTION>
I am always amazed by people that ask license questions here: Not every organization has the same license. And the opinion of other users is totally irrelevant. We could render an opinion that is correct today but be completely wrong tomorrow.

Risking one's employment and employer by asking us these questions makes absolutely no sense. So why does this keep coming up? </THE_QUESTION>
