Ruslan, this discussion started with the demo thingy but changed into 
the legalities of distribution and the issue is with Lynn's saying 
that in his interpretation passing the license code to vxcmd at 
run-time does not really meet EULA (same must be then true for v4rb). 
He is saying effectively that our including Valentina library/plugin 
with our software is not legal unless explicitely licenced.
