[AccessD] Add-In Express 2009 for MS Office and .NET

Hi Gustav et al,

Thank you Gustav for your commenting/quoting Add-In Express licensing
conditions.

So if, e.g., I will develop a sample MS Access Developer Assistant Add-in,
publish it on my site for free download, and I will make this add-in
"armored" with pluggable architecture, and then I describe this architecture
in an Access Developer Assistant Pluggable Architecture CodePlex project
then everybody who will make a plug-in to this add-in, publish it within
CodePlex (or on their own site/blog), and describe it in an article/note
within that CodePlex project/own site/blog - all they can get a free license
for one of Add-in Express software products? Correct?

How to make a first plug-in without having Add-In Express license - this is
a technical question - it can be done - late binding can help here...

Still not sure Add-In Express Owners will like such an Access Developer
Assistant project or not. Although they promise(?) just a license for one
their product for free - and they have several software products an active
MS Office/.NET developer would probably want to purchase additionally to a
free license:

- Add-in Express 2009 for Microsoft Office and .net;
- Add-in Express 2010 for Internet Explorer and Microsoft .net;
- Security Manager 2009 for Microsoft Outlook;
- Add-in Express 2008 for Outlook Express and Microsoft .net.

So Add-In Express owners shouldn't resist to an "Access Developer Assistant
Add-In Initiative" as if it happens to be implemented in a useful software
product, it could become a good "promotion campaign" for them?

Thank you.

Hi Shamil et al

Here is at least one option - if each(!) developer runs his/her own blog:

<quote>
For bloggers - get any product for free

If you run a blog about Microsoft Office development, or about .NET, VSTO
and Delphi programming in general, you can get any Add-in Express product or
upgrade for free. All you need to do is to review Add-in Express on your
blog. Just drop us a note using the contact form and we will get back to you
to discuss details.

.. (I should note again - I'm not sure yet how to "share" Add-In Express
license and PIAs for an open source project - it might be an issue blocking
this probable project...)

Thank you.
