Does anyone know how the licensing for SQL will work with Greenwich? Do all
Greenwich users require a SQL CAL? Or only the people who are logging?

Greetings Stephen,

I believe it uses the SQL Desktop Engine (MSDE), so no SQL CAL is required.

Really? I was at TechEd in Dallas last week, and both presenters in both of
the Greenwich sessions said you would need a SQL CAL...

Hi Stephen,

Note to self: next year I ask for donations to get to TechEd

Anyway, this might had changed since I last looked at it, but as for as I know it uses MSDE.
I guess we'll see closer to the release.
