Getting counted

Post by Janvl »

Hi

Does someone know a way to check how many times one is counted?
Sun wants to know how many people use OOo, this is difficult.
I have it installes 5 times, Win and Lin.
I installed it very often for other people so it will be difficult.

Someone Ideas, for example how to contact Sun on the item?

I wouldn't worry about it, the registrations are not that precise anyway; it's just a rough estimate.

Just don't register yourself 50 times: once you've registered once for yourself and once for each person using the copies you installed, then just decline the registration after that. There's no need to count anyone more than once.

Oh, and no, there's no way to tell who has registered or how many times.

You could go around and ask everyone. It would take some time, but Santa Claus manages that kind of coverage, so if you really need to know, you could ask him for help or advice.

Of course, that requires you to believe in Santa...

That´s not completely right you can review your own registration data:
Just log in here and have a look https://sunconnection.sun.com/inventory/

Also note that there is a uniq ID generated by OOo at first startup which is used for registration, registering the same product again with that same uniq id doesn´t get you counted twice.
