What should that mean? According to the following installation instructions in the Web Space Server 10.0 Getting Started Guide I have to install a separate GlassFish Enterprise Server v2.1 before installing the Web Space Server so that no bundle comes into effect here.

I am relying on the Glassfish Wiki that states on the page http://wiki.glassfish.java.net/Wiki.jsp?page=FaqGlassFishReallyFree, that both the application server and the Enerprise Server are "totally free to use". The request to ask my SunSolve service representative sounds as if I need a support contract in order to be able to get updates for the Web Space Server. But this would mean that the Web Space Server is not really free to use because a real free use requires free updates too. Could someone explain please, how the support.sun.com repository can be enabled? I didn't find any source what explains that.
