Types of s/w licenses

-
Hi Guys,

 When we work with any application(s), it  may have license, sometimes tools are of freeware with no license. To my knowledge, here are few types of license that are common.
1. Concurrent Licenses - Licenses that can be installed on any number of machines but can be used on a limited number of machines at any given point
2. Developer License -  Software that needs to be licensed by developer and the redistributable components can be deployed to any number of client/servers.
3. Evaluation - Trial license which may come with limited functionality or for a definite period of time
4. Free License - License that is available for free.
5. GNU License – General Public License is a free software license ensuring that the rights are preserved even when the software is copylefted.
6. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturers) - Software license that accompanies hardware
7. Site License -  Software that is licensed to a site.  The definition of the site can vary by vendor – physical location, city, etc.
8. Volume license or Enterprise Volume License  - A single license can be used on multiple systems depending on the purchased volume.

The Difference between GET and POST

-
When the user enters information in a form and clicks Submit , there are two ways the information can be sent from the browser to the server: in the URL, or within the body of the HTTP request. The GET method, which was used in the example earlier, appends name/value pairs to the URL. Unfortunately, the length of a URL is limited, so this method only works if there are only a few parameters. The URL could be truncated if the form uses a large number of parameters, or if the parameters contain large amounts of data. Also, parameters passed on the URL are visible in the address field of the browsernot the best place for a password to be displayed. The alternative to the GET method is the POST method. This method packages the name/value pairs inside the body of the HTTP request, which makes for a cleaner URL and imposes no size limitations on the forms output. It is also more secure. ASP makes it simple to retrieve name/value pairs. If the forms output is passed after the question mark (?
