APPENDICES

Appendix A - Examples of Household Usage

Here are some examples of what is and what is not considered a valid use of a Household License. All the names used herein are fictitious, and any similarity to real names is coincidental.

Example 1 - Jim and Kathy O'Connor have been married for 27 years. They have a son, Allan, who is attending graduate school. Jim has a PC running Windows (R) 2000 and a ThinkPad (R) running Windows XP. Kathy has a Macintosh (R) running MacOS 9 and a PowerBook (R) running MacOS X.

Kathy downloaded a copy of Haniport Levee for MacOS users and installed it on her PowerBook, which was running MacOS X. After using it for a few days she decided she liked it and used the menu item within the application to buy the product online. The online purchase procedure installed her registration onto her PowerBook. She then got an email confirmation that provided her with her user name and serial number, a copy of which she immediately put in a safe place. She installed Haniport Levee on her older Macintosh running MacOS 9 and entered her user name and serial number in the initial splash screen (she could also have used the Edit Registration menu item). Then she was able to use the fully enabled software on both of her Macs.

Meanwhile, Jim downloaded the version of Haniport Levee for Windows XP users to both of his Windows machines and used the same user name and serial number that Kathy gave him to enable all the features of the software on both of them.

All four uses of the Kathy's registration are valid under the Household License. However, if Allan comes home from grad school for a visit, he's welcome to use any of his parents' computers, but the Household License does not allow him to place a copy on his own computer; he lives separately from his parents, so he needs his own registration.

Example 2 - Chris Travers and Pat Smithson have been living together for 22 years in a committed relationship. They have two adopted children, Dale and Lynn, and they rent a room to a graduate student by the name of Allan O'Connor (small world, isn't it). In addition, Pat's elderly father has recovered from his health problems but has stayed on with Chris and Pat so they can keep an eye on him, not to mention how convenient it is that Grandpa enjoys watching the kids when Pat and Chris need a break. Chris has downloaded Haniport Levee 1.0 for use on a PowerBook and has purchased a registration to use it. Chris is allowed to use that registration for computers used by Pat, the kids, and Pat's father, basically everyone in the household except Allan, who still needs his own registration.

Example 3 - Allan's graduate studies regularly take him out of town, from Corvallis to Portland. When in Portland he generally stays in a room at the apartment shared by Pat's cousin Ruth and Ruth's brother Rod. Ruth and Rod, both being adults, have each already purchased a registration for Haniport Levee 1.0. Since Allan is just a friend he would need his own registration, which would make a total of three for the apartment.

Appendix B - Examples of School Usage

And now, here are some examples of what is and what is not considered a valid use of a School License.

Example 4 - Rod Smithson teaches school at a Portland elementary school, as does his sister Ruth. Both use Haniport Levee 1.0 as part of their curriculum (and lest you think this is far-fetched, I've heard from teachers that in fact do use our first product, Seahaven Towers 1.0, as part of their curriculum). The school has two classrooms set up with computers. Ruth teaches 40 kids, 20 in each room, and Rod teaches 22 kids in just one of the rooms.

Haniport Levee 1.0 has been installed on all of the machines in both rooms using a registration that Ruth acquired with a District credit card. Because Rod also teaches using the room, the District has paid for a second registration in Rod's name, even though none of the computers actually have that registration installed.

Occasionally, when Rod or Ruth are ill, they use a substitute teacher, their visiting roommate Allan who also works at the school developing curricula as part of his Masters Thesis project. As a surrogate for either Rod or Ruth, Allan can use the software at school without a requirement that the District purchase another registration. Were Allan to get a full-time job at the school and also teach using Haniport Levee 1.0, a third registration would be required. The District's two registrations do not allow Allan, or other teachers, to install and use Haniport Levee 1.0 on a personal computer

Example 5 - Once a year, Rod and Ruth each have a talk with their students regarding the ethics of software copying. The wording of this license is very careful on this point. It would be great for teachers to strongly consider having this discussion with the kids who come in contact with the software, but it isn't a mandatory part of the license because frankly that would be an impractical restriction on teachers that already have a lot of things to track. It is also important to note that the license doesn't state what sort of discussion to have, but there seem to be plenty of starting points in the news these days. At this point in time, just having the discussion would be appreciated.
