Thanks for clarifying that, Joe, I thnk a lot of us had the impression that it would be free ... and a lot of us disappointed. Oh well ...

Not sure it clarified it for me - I'm still confused on the free bit... If the functionality that makes up Active Social is incorporated into the core, making it available to everyone using the community, then it seems to be free. So I guess I'm not getting the distinction between a product and it's functionality.

Jeff,
  The distinction is that currently you can install and uninstall ActiveSocial on a wide range of DotNetNuke versions.  This provides administrators some level of control but also limits how deeply ActiveSocial can integrate with the core.  As we begin integrating ActiveSocial, it will not be something the user installs, or can uninstall.  Many pieces will become part of the core API.  This also means that to get access to Active Social features, you will need to run the latest version of DotNetNuke that integrates ActiveSocial features.

I primarily made the distinction because I don't want anyone to get the impression that at some point in the future they'll be able to download a free copy of ActiveSocial and install it on DotNetNuke 4.x, 5.x.
