Can we Use kendo UI elements in some of our projects ?

[rudy]

downloaded the beta version and really like the grid and menu so i want to use this in some of my projects which include some of the websites of our own and some website that we make for some clients .

So i read the agreement , but its quite confusing ... as in this case i will be using the code for menu and grid and i will also be modifying it somewhat so that it will suits my website in terms of css and adding some more features to it .

So in one way i am using some code and inserting it in a website and i am talking some money in return of the website  and in case in which i am using it in my websites then i will be generating some revenue from advertisement .

So i want a clarification that whether i can use these elements in my projects as mentioned above and what are the conditions ?

Hi Rudy,

The provisions of the Kendo UI Beta license agreement are listed here:
http://www.kendoui.com/download/LicenseAgreement.aspx?skuId=436

The Beta license terms do not recommend using the Kendo UI Framework in production but rather for testing purposes. Note that for the official v1 release (slated in November 2011) the product will be offered with dual licensing model: Open Source and Commercial one (see the corresponding bullet from the FAQ on the site).

Best regards,
