Probably no longer relevant, but I just checked our Tiger Server Box, and
there is no separate license or installer for WO anywhere in it. So, I'm
thinking the only way to deploy on anything else is via the J2EE options.
This would have to imply that when you build using 5.3 and Tiger, it no
longer asks for the license key, but not sure about that and won't be
finding out any time soon.
