It is not enforced in the software, I don't think.  If you think that
you will have more than 5 people wanting to use it at any one time, you just
get a bigger or unlimited license.  C'mon you don't want to have lots of
people using the product at the same time and not pay for it, do you ? ;-)
I think it is great that they have a limited license at all.
There are many users and sites that have only a few Suns and would rather
not pay for an unlimited license.
