I have already answered this, but once again:

If all goes well, P-H will have 1.5 in the summer.  Summer runs from June 22 
to Sept 21 (although Bruce Evans, Earl Chew, and some others may disagree).

Starting a couple of months ago, the shrink wrap license says you may make
2 backup copies.  You may give this away to others, but they may not make
further copies.
