b) You may use the Free Edition on any supported platform to build
stacks, applications or files for your own use or to give to others either
free of charge or for a fee ("Created Software"). You may distribute your
Created Software by any method to anyone, subject to the terms of this
agreement.

special restrictions. These include any files not initially distributed in

updated version. The Licensed User is responsible for the cost of updating
the Revolution Software, such updates will be made available via the
Internet.

to contact the correct address dependant on the type of question being
asked. Guidelines on this subject may be found on our web site. Support
will cover learning to use the Revolution Software, and issues relevant to
using the Revolution Software. Such support will not be available during
reasonable holiday periods. Runtime Revolution Limited reserves the right
to limit such support to a reasonable level, and is particularly likely to
limit support on questions covering aspects of designing software
applications. Telephone support is expressly excluded. If a multi user
license has been purchased, the License Contact is expected to review the
support requests, handle simple and site specific problems, and pass the
remainder on to Runtime Revolution Limited technical support.
