One of the requirements of the project is that once development is complete, the application must be maintained and managed by the end users without any software or license restrictions/payments. Can we do the following?:</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>1) Develop and run the application using the enterprise license for 1 or more years. This allows us to take advantage of Alfresco support and bug fixes.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>2) When our users have been trained and are able to manage the application themselves, revert to the community license so that the users do not need to pay license fees.</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 09 Jan 2012 22:05:53 GMT pcharsle 2012-01-09T22:05:53Z Reverting from enterprise to community https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/reverting-from-enterprise-to-community/m-p/249279#M202409 We are considering using Alfresco to create a collaboration site for a project funded by the World bank.
