Hello,
I have read that I can't use FGS on a server with ECW layers due the ECW license
Am I right?

Pedro,

We are actually clarifying this issue.  I'll come back to you.

Pedro,

There is effectively a license issue with ECW layers.  This is why we
removed this library from the self-installer and from the Web site.  We
are now only distributing the ECW FGS plug-in.  You have to read the
license on the Erdas Web site at http://www.ermapper.com/ to verify if
you meet the criterias to use the library free of charge.  If yes you
have to compile this library by yourself.

Sorry for this inconvenient.

Norm
