I'm not an expert on AWS/etc, but I imagine predictable and fast startup of instances is important. With a plugin download (even from Cisco), it would seem to be worrisome for a cloud service developer to rely on this completing "quickly" and not having an error *ever* - and they can't host it themselves. I think Cisco would have to say that (at least) certain versions of the binary (warts, bugs and all) MUST remain available for immediate download <long time>. And anything (lawsuit) that for any reason forced Cisco to even temporarily stop distributing it would be disaster for them; so I think they'd need to bite the bullet and sign a license - which has costs even if you stay under 100K (and you have to reliably count uses, etc). Also, if they're encoding videos in H.264 and charging money to see them (or for a service that includes them, and this might include even an answering-system I'm-away video message), they wouldn't fall into the Cisco-paid cap category (perhaps; IANAPL). -- Randell Jesup -- rjesup a t mozilla d o t com
