What does Norm Abrams think about this? I'm sure Norm doesn't care. When you are "really" good, like Norm, you can just freehand. He don't need no stinking jig!

Norm is good, but he ain't 1/100th of an inch good like a good jig will allow a competent user to be. Ever try a free hand dovetail joint? all you will get is expensive kindling.

Nope, Norm has several dovetail jigs. He rarely cuts them the old-fashioned way.
The Stotts template is basically a tool used to make a tool. In that it is unique. But according to many of the reviews I've seen, it's a time consuming PITA. You can buy a dedicated dovetailing jig for not much more money and save a good chunk of time.
Oh, yeah - the licensing idea is idiotic.
