Hi

If running in an Enterprise level organisation with separate servers for
Development/ Testing, Business Acceptance test and Production is it allowed
to use the SQL Server Developer Licence on the Development servers

The reason for this question comes from the following article:
http://www.sqlserverclub.com/essentialguides/essential09.aspx

is the approach being proposed here legal?

Here is what is posted on the MS web site for Developer edition:

Ideal Choice for Independent Software Vendors, Consultants, System
Integrators, Solution Providers, and Corporate Developers

Developer Edition allows developers to build and test any type of
application with SQL Server on 32-bit, ia64, and x64 platforms. Developer
Edition includes all of the functionality of Enterprise Edition, but is
licensed only for development, test, and demo use. Each license of SQL
Server 2005 Developer Edition entitles one developer to use the software on
as many systems as necessary and additional developers can use the software
by purchasing additional licenses. For rapid deployment into production,
Developer Edition can easily be upgraded to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise
Edition.

So as long as each developer has a valid developer edition license you are
all set on Development servers.
