SME Server is freely available under the GNU General Public License and |

within your means toward the costs associated with hosting, maintenance and |
41 |
development. |
42 |
|
43 |
b) If you are a company or an integrator and you are deploying SME Server in |
44 |
the course of your work to generate revenue, we expect you to make a donation |
45 |
commensurate with the level of revenue you generate and the number of servers |
46 |
your have in the field. Please, help the project |
