Most likely, and no one argued against it.

Last time I checked, SA was a project aiming at the admin type of guy,
not the pointy haired boss who wants to simply buy a device and get over
the issue, neither the end-user. Also, SA itself is not for sale...

The OP, Andrew, clearly is the admin type. I'd guess the mere fact that
he's actively discussing and tended to the SA users list in the first
place, is a telltale sign.


On the topic of Bayes: No one argued against a shared database. As a
matter of fact, SA does deliberately support site-wide shared Bayes, and
offers documentation. However,

  shared != default
