If you wanted a serious answer you really shouldn't ask on a list populated by
simple users like me :) SuSE has official addresses too

That said, my understanding of the license is that you can copy and give to a
friend, so long as you don't get paid for it.

And you can install one copy on several machines, but you only get
installation support for one of them.

But that's just my understanding. I am very much not a lawyer
