> This is not entirely correct - this was just the output of one of our testsystems.
> When you freshly deploy this system, the deadline lies in the future (30 days free trial) and it keeps renewing every hour and changes the configuration for that and therefore generates a rancid diff.
> Also when installing a valid license, the behaviour is the same - the deadline field is static and won't change and therefore won't show up in the config diff, but the renewal date does and the output does not change when the state of the license changes (from valid to expired, f.ex.) - it's just the renewal-date which changes so this can be safely ignored.

thanks.  i'm leaving the filter.
