Re: OpenVMS Hobbyist License

Sumant,
Is this system for your personal use? That's the condition for a hobbyist license.

If the system belongs to any kind of commercial entity, or is used for business use, please contact HP to negotiate the purchase of the necessary licenses.

If it's your personal system for non-commercial use, go to http://www.openvmshobbyist.com/licenses.php

Sumant,

DECUServe is now an official Hobbyist Chapter, so you need to register an account with DECUServe first to get your membership number. For details see:

http://decuserve.org/

There is a current story about this on OpenVMS.org.
