Hi,
how is the legal "Terms of use" of this extension ? Does the sentence
"You also agree that IBM is free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how,
or techniques that you send us for any purpose." within the IBM page at
https://www.ibm.com/legal/us/en/ fit to this service ?
Kind regards, Joost

No current plans to make source code available. It is a
free-of-charge extension for OpenOffice. I don't believe we have
tested with LibreOffice. You can see the license details when you
install. Standard IBM license for non-warrantied software.

I wasn't aware of this, but it sounds powerful, is there a publicly
estimated user-base for the product ? If the connector is small enough;
given that it's widely useful - I'd be interested in the possibility of
including it into LibreOffice: particularly with a view to putting a
number of these connectors side-by-side and factoring commonality out of
them to share to reduce size/overlap.
That requires a free-software license though; is the plan to release
the code at some stage ?
Thanks,
Michael,
PS. Amusingly, I got a Microsoft / Windows Azure advert as I
downloaded it :-)
