What they are alluding to on Spiceworks is that the cost of
Proxmox VE as being free is not prominent enough to warrant
belief.<br>
<br>
Here is what the overall sentiment is:<font color="#000000"><br>
</font></font></font>
<blockquote><font size="+1"><font face="monospace"><font
color="#000000">"</font></font></font><font color="#000000">...the
wiki is written by volunteers or not kept up to date. The only
place that I can find to download ProxMox VE says that you have
to check the support site to deploy and the support site says
that you must be licensed. </font><font size="+1"><font
face="monospace"><font color="#000000">"</font></font></font><br>
</blockquote>
<font size="+1"><font face="monospace">Maybe a few wording changes
on the subscription page, to restate that "Proxmox is completely
free to use." since that is the page they are referring to.<br>

<pre wrap="">This should be clarified. It can be easily understood, especially by those whose
native language is different than English, that you are obliged to buy subscription
for every PM installation that you have.
Indeed, this sentence's grammar form is unfortunate and may scare away
potential users.

Well, a 'support subscription/contract' and a 'software license' is something totally different.
Besides, those are well known terms - IMHO no need to explain (all major software companies use those terms).
