Problem Title:
M1: Difference between FEATURE and INCREMENT line in license.dat file


Problem Description:
Keywords: M1, license.dat

Urgency: Standard

General Description:  What is the difference between the FEATURE and
INCREMENT line?


Solution 1:

The FEATURE line and INCREMENT line are basically equivalent.

The FEATURE line is more restrictive in that only one
FEATURE Line per feature is allowed in the file. Using
INCREMENT lets us send additional licenses as they're purchased.

All new licenses for M1 software will now have increment instead
of FEATURE.
