IMHO Software Licensing questions (even old ones) should be closed as duplicates of Can you help me with my software licensing issue?Can you help me with my software licensing issue? ;

I believe we have something similar for "Can you recommend hardware" type questions but those are more of a gray area (if the question is about a particular Storage need - say "deduplication and tiered storage of legacy data" an answer may include recommendations for hardware/software/systems with those features ; If the question is "What kind of SAN should I buy?" the answer will probably be "Figure out your needs and talk to some vendors (we aren't going to do your job for you)."

Just my $3.50
