Robin, there were more license discussions on this list than I could even 
count. Searching all of them just to find this particular issue would also 
take a load search time for me. I am sure you will find it if you invest a 
certain required amount of time.

You might also check the respective other license discussions on other lists 
like LAD and LAU.

No it was not.
