I am an independent software developer, and I am reading a product
for market.  Like many developers in my position, money is a premium. 
I can't affort to include a third party License Manager in my product,
however I have a reasonable node locking scheme.  Still,  I view the
inability to provide floating licenses a real problem. 

Are there any reasonable public domain license managers out there that
could be modified for my purpose.  In leau of that, has anyone had
any experience with first release products that were initially node 
locked and then later floating licenses were available.  Did the 
companys provide an trade in policy, to make the deal seem a little
sweeter to big accounts ?
