Michael Swindell clarifies Delphi 8 license update
"The general idea of [the] license update is that component vendors can now sub-license the Delphi "redistributables" to any component customer - even those who might not have a Delphi license already (such as a Visual Studio developer). Prior to this update the license assumed that a component customer would be a Delphi developer and would already have a redistributables license - so a sub-license provision wasn’t necessary."
Thanks Michael!
