Encoding additional information in license

Hey Craig,

We've added custom license feature to LimeLM and TurboActivate. See the article Custom license features.

Tell me if you have any questions.

That is awesome Wyatt. No rush needed since I'm not releasing until closer to July or later.

Hi Craig,

Yes, we're planning on adding the ability to add custom fields alongside the license and have the LimeLM servers sign the data. We're planning to add this by the beginning of June.

We'll try to push this earlier if this is a make-or-break feature for you.

How soon are you releasing the new version of your app?

Let's say I want to be able to associate a number with a product key. In my example I have a client/server application and I will be selling per client installed. I want the activation to only happen on my server, not at each client. So if I could register a single product key that is authorized for example 150 clients, and then have my server activate this and be able to securely access that 150 number, I can then verify that the customer is in compliance by checking the # of active clients talking to my server.

From what I can see the activation in LimeLM is simply boolean, per product per machine. Would you consider adding this type of feature in an upcoming release?

Thanks
Craig
