that's right. The whole public extension will be totally free for 
everyone. Regardless of a free (limited or whatever we decide) scanner 
tool. Of course there would be also a win32 and a *nix version of it. 
Applet is also possible.

As I said: SB is currently a european research projekt. The results of 
releasing it as a free version for TYPO3 will be a great benefit for us 
- and the community.

It's totally OOP so it will fit seamless into TYPO3. We didn't 
experience any problems to this point but I think there are some hurdles 
to take.

Thanks for your feedback,

Jörg
