[AccessD] Copy Protection Needed

I would be willing to help out. 

A few years ago I released, to this group, the name based key gen system I
use. As in my last post, I have been very reluctant to key the software to
the user's hardware.

I do think this is the ticket for instances where you do not care how many
copies run at a given 
site.  Make the user contact you for a key.  Make them include the "serial
number" of the installed 
BE and the name of the company and create a table that holds the name /
address of the company and 
keys dispensed.  Then if people call in asking for more / new keys, the
Serial Number of the BE 
should match the name / address they provide.  If the serial number is in
your database but the name 
/ address is somewhere completely different...

Is anyone interested in forming a working group to define and perhaps even
design / build such a 
system that Database Advisors could license to group members?
