Application development is complitely free. Furthermore, you can deploy - the developed application for testing and validation at the development time.
- -A commercial license must be obtained for production use of the - applications that use IT Mill Toolkit libraries.
- -A deployment license is required for each deployed copy of a program - that uses Toolkit library. To be more exact, each Java Virtual - Machine (JVM) that runs a program that uses IT Mill Toolkit libraries, must have an - unique deployment license. For example, if the program is - deployed to multiple servers (for load balancing or other reasons), each - server needs an unique license.
- -If the number of server installations is so high that separate deployment - licenses are not an option, please contact sales - to hear about OEM licensing options.
- -Deployment licenses can be purchased online from IT Mill Ltd.
- -If you are interested in OEM-license for your product, please - contact sales at IT Mill Ltd.
- -The actual legal license text is in license.pdf.
- -Technically license is stored as itmill-toolkit-license.xml -file, that is usually - store in WEB-INF -directory of the web-application. The license file - contains information about the scope and limitations of the license in fairly readable - form, so you might want to check the file contents. Toolkit package is shipped with - unlimited license for development and testing purposes.
- -Free unlimited development license - license-file is included in product package in - lib -directory
- -The previous version 3 of the product was called Millstone User Interface Library. - Millstone library was licensed with very liberal LGPL-license. The latest free release of - Millstone User Interface Library (version 3.1) can still be found from sourceforge.
- -The new version 4 of the library, now called IT Mill Toolkit, is not licensed with - an open source license. This does not mean that the sources are closed, source code is - included in the product package for your convenience.
- -Why did we change the license? Putting a clear transparent pricing model on the - product makes our customers decision-making easier. They know how much they are - paying for and that they can expect commercial grade quality product for their money.
- -If you want to use the IT Mill Toolkit for teaching programming, web - development or user interface design, you can apply for educational - license by contacting sales at IT - Mill Ltd.
