This is interesting. The other day I was talking to my manager
about TSM licensing and mentioned the big thread about
licensing confusion. He mentioned that he would LIKE it if TSM
used a simple capacity-based license. His reasoning was that it
would directly tie the cost of TSM back to what we use it for, and
let him more easily force issues around long/big retensions we have.
