    On Oct 20, Peter Breuer wrote to Redhat requesting clarification on their
    license for Redhat Entrprise editions. This arose out of some discussions
    as to whether or not, under that license it was legal to install the
    distributions on an arbitrary number of computers, or even make copies of
    the CDs/DVDs in the boxes and give them away to others, without buying
    anything further from RedHat.

    I have not seen anywhere what the reply to that query to Red Hat was.
