In this example, the commercial tool would probably be a single executable and not a set of libraries or plug-ins. To my understanding, that's similar to a User's Guide to Version 9 based on, extending and correcting the Guide for Version 8.
Please don't draw specific legal conclusions from my preliminary read of your software architecture
I greatly appreciate your time and consideration ... with no liability attached ;)
I gather your product is designed to work with independently-created and independently-owned plug-ins.
Not particularly, though that's a general direction that software appears to be moving. Primarily, it's used with client applications that need transaction-based data storage. We would like to allow others to build tools around the package like the database repair tool I suggested.
Again, thank you for your efforts to educate the unenlightened.
Sincerely,
Ann
