### Licensed software (Positron, MATLAB, etc)

Some applications proxied this way require a license tied to your institution. 2i2c can mount a license file into user pods as an encrypted secret via KubeSpawner's `extraFiles`, so the license never needs to live in your image. This requires [opening a support request](../../support.md), since it involves handling secrets on the 2i2c side. Securing the license itself with the vendor is the community's responsibility.

should we link to the openscapes config as well or just leave it?

Leave it, I think -- link rot?
