[]For what Conrad wishes to do, each domain would need its own license - the intent of the license is to permit one board to run per license. Doing this, even with only one copy of the software and one database, with the intent to create the effect of multiple boards, would probably be viewed as a violation of the license. [/]
This is a tricky one. I don't believe "creating the effect of running multiple boards" goes against the "one board per license rule", as in reality there would only be ONE board, not several.
Creating the effect of running multiple boards is certainly not the same as running multiple boards on a single license. It's merely an illusion, a different design (colours, etc.) depending on who accesses it, but the bottom line is that it's a single board, with one user group, exactly the same forums, messages. Basically just one board, period.
