is it?

That's the WebObjects Deployment license. The WebObjects Developer
license
is the one we modified in 5.3.1 to permit deployments on other
platforms.
If you're going to develop on OS X (WebObjects Developer) and
deploy on
non-Apple hardware, the OS X Server (WebObjects Deployment) license is
irrelevant.
Hi Cliff
Despite your very welcome efforts I'm sorry to say this is still not
clear to me. You wrote

but I don't know whether this means I don't need a license to deploy
on non-Apple hardware, or that a license won't be any use on non-
Apple hardware. Is it irrelevant because it doesn't work?
Many helpful and informed WO developers have contributed to this
discussion in the past, but as far as I can tell they each contradict
the preceding poster and the result remains inconclusive.
Is it possible to put a true/false response to the following statements?
"If I buy OS X 10.4+ I will get a licensed copy of WebObjects
developer for no extra charge. "
"If I buy OS X Server 10.4+ I get a WebObjects deployment license
for no extra charge."
"If I deploy my WebObjects app on non-Apple hardware I do not need
to get a license from Apple"
or
"If I deploy my WebObjects app on non-Apple hardware I should still
buy a copy of OS X Server in order to get a license that I will need
use when deploying on the non-Apple hardware"
And one more that I'm not sure about.
"For versions of WebObjects > 5.2 there are no WO deployment
libraries for non-Apple hardware. If I want to use WO 5.3.1 and
deploy on Linux I have to abandon wotaskd and use J2EE
