You may have already heard of the Service Provider Licensing Agreement (SPLA) from Microsoft - specially designed for hosters or anyone who is providing a hosted service to end users. It's a cost-effective, pay-as-you-go, way to license MS software without purchasing all the servers up front. A no-brainer for hosters. Find out all about it in Ciara's blog entry on the new licensing blog.

But did you know that you can now sign a SPLA agreement with an Irish reseller? Micromail have been one of our largest local dev tools reseller for some time now and provide a great service to the Irish market - so folks can now look forward to the usual excellent service from Willy and everyone down in Micromail in Cork when licensing under SPLA. Check out their site for more information.
