Re: [hercules-390] LPAR and Accounting question

  First, it's high time James heard about the advocacy list, so I'm copying
there.
  I believe, but never having tried can't say for sure, the answer is yes.
There are reports of IBM employee's and ISV employee's doing so, and some
others. 
  At least some people believe, but I also haven't heard of any actual
"cease and desist" orders, that IBM Legal will take a very dim view of such
activity.
  I for one, won't jeopardize my company's ability to run an OS essential
to our business viability by even trying.
