That's a good question. I don't know. But I'm guessing you would, 
because the old MC Home stack checks for a license stored in Home, and 
the new engine also checks for a license stored elsewhere by the engine. 
So maybe we need both? Of course, most of us are using a 
previously-licensed Home stack, so that issue becomes moot.

I really like "Winnie the Poohbah". Cute. :)
