New Community Server Licensing Document Released

[update] The community is jumping in over here and the reaction is about what I expected. The MVPs are weighing in with their opinions on a seperate thread as well...it is very much worth mentioning that Rob Howard and Co are actively listening, so feel free to chime in if you have an opinion/suggestion/etc. [/update]

Earlier today, Rob Howard released the new licensing scheme (direct link [.pdf]) for Community Server 2007.  I won't venture into too much detail until that document is finalized (which it may already be), but I'm concerned over the limitations set forth for the personal edition: The blog/gallery count is too low, but my main concern is in the number of mirrored feeds allowed, plus if you follow my guidelines for setting up a mirrored content section you burn one of your available blogs.  You can purchase 50 pack blog/gallery/mirror licenses at 100USD each which is fairly reasonable, but I feel each tier should be shifted up one level.  I'm curious to see what the community reaction will be. 

Regardless, CS 2007 is shaping up to be a killer release from some of the internal betas that I've seen.

It could be reasonable, but it requires a standard license (400$), since the personal does not allow to add any pack.
