You're clucking at the wrong chicken, Tony, I never use external (to me) sites anyway. ;)

Seriously, I have no clue if there is any difference. Hans told me he'd been hit once with a difference, and I can see where Brian et al are coming from with their comments regarding the license. The only thing I can add to the discussion is that it would seem doubtful to me (though I've been wrong before and certainly will be again) that anyone could tell where it has been downloaded from once the software is downloaded. Again, YMMV, RTFM, select standard_disclaimer from corporate_requirements, and all that jazz. ;)

Pete,

I've always taken the view that the software is the same, no matter where it comes from. Since downloading from OTN works a lot better and easier for me, I never bother with eDelivery. I'm thinking that if we have a properly paid license, that would cover production installations, rather than the OTN download license. If memory serves well, there's even a line in the OTN licensing that alludes to it - something like "if the software is used in a production environment, a full license must be obtained".

Am I wrong? Should production software always be downloaded from eDelivery?

Cheers,
Tony
