Hello Tiemo,

nice to meet you here fighting against your 1000 videos ... and your videos against you ;-) 
I hope you still are glad about your migration to runrev as I am in most cases. 

Hi Jan,

thank you for your advices! 
For contacting runrev it would be to early for me I think (I guess the RevSelect program would cost sth and in this case I am a Scot in bavarian exile ;-).
But your experiences with a library stack embedded with "start using" is in the direction which is helpful for me. I did not yet use animation engine of malte or your Quartam reports etc. in a working environment (therefore never had experience with the license system used in such commercial libs). Generally it would be helpful if there would exist a standard defined for runrev commercial libs.
When someone often uses Perl and CPAN he enjoys the defined standard "use MODUL::SUBSET"  and "my $barcode = .. -> new; $barcode->do etc." which allows embedding of moduls very easily and makes the design of moduls very clear.

The library stack method is clear. Perhaps the licensing method could be set by a standard either ...
Perhaps:

start using  stack PDF with user "xyz" and password "abc" and parameter="version=1.3;security level=high"

Regards
Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Franz Böhmisch

Hi Franz,

As a provider of Revolution add-ons, I'd advise you
to:
- contact Heather Nagey <heather at runrev.com> for more
information about the RevSelect program
- join the RevInterop group
<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/revInterop/> to find
out more about packaging and metadata

Generally, I ship my libraries as a self-contained
stack that people can 'start using' and then
initialize with their license key before they can
actually use the commands and functions.

For instance, the PDF library has the API help
built-in as a substack, as well as a separate substack
with demo scripts. When you open the library stack, it
has the copyright information and buttons to take you
to the demo and documentation substacks.

By the way, congratulations with your project: I can't
help but thinking of how one could use this with
Revolution to create a cross-platform alternative to
the excellent Mac-only Delicious Library.

Anyway, I hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
