James,

Be very careful when making statements about SI policy on bundling of
software with v9, as, I believe, this only applies in the US, and may
still only apply to Early Adopters like Pace University.  SAS EMEA, and
more specifically SAS UK, have not yet decided whether, or not, to
bundle EG v2.x with SAS v9.1.
