Hi guys,<br>
<br>
We're planning to deploy our proprietary HTTP/1.1 WebServer (of course in Erlang ;-)) on a customer website<br>
next month.<br>
<br>
For that, we would like to create a licensing system to ensure that it will not be deployed elsewhere.<br>
<br>
Someone offlist told me that "QuickCheck" has a very good licensing system to protect their code<br>
and manage the number of allowed users. Unfortunately, I don't know how it works.<br>
<br>
Any hints? Any code?<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Zabrane<br>
