+=FAQ: Can I buy an Apache Licence?
As the subject says, I have seen a few posts asking to buy an Apache Licence.
It would be useful to be able to point people to a FAQ entry that
deals with this question.
Could this be added please?

Indeed, that's what I meant: we don't sell licences or subscriptions.
However many other software providers do.
I think that needs to be explained somewhere.

I guess you could, but why would you want to? Seems there's might be a deeper misunderstanding we could answer?
