[ngw] smartphones

[Danita Zanre]

I don't think it's for "licensed OES2 users" - I think it's for "OES2
services".   In fact, the quote is "You are authorized to use an unlimited
number of copies of the SUSE* Linux Enterprise Server portion of the
Software (SLES) to run OES services for licensed OES Users."

I think it's a stretch to say that GroupWise is an OES service overall.
