"THE WORLD OF SOFTWARE LICENSING is fantastic and unlikely, a colorful 
Oz-like place of adventure and peril, creative thinking and complex 
conundrums. If you were to imagine that wherever you're reading this is 
Kansas, in about nine paragraphs you will not be in Kansas anymore. 

 But it's important that you make the journey, especially if you 
suppose that software licensing is as straightforward as writing checks 
to vendors. It's not. There are dizzying intricacies in this world, and 
their unraveling requires the attention of dedicated experts."
