Thanks Ed and all.

Having pondered I thikn that's where it is. I still won what the ubiquitous reverse-engineering is in German though...

cmj: No - we did copying in the previous sentence. Above sentence starts with "Insbesondere wird der Lizenznehmer...." Sorry - should have pasted it in but like lots of legal it's a ****** pdf...
Edward L. Crosby III Jan 23, 2004:
See my added note. I think "reproduce" is it.
Non-ProZ.com Jan 23, 2004:
Edward: Der Lizenznehmer wird die Software weder �bersetzen, recompilieren, disassemblieren noch nachschaffen.

(in the sense of plagiarism) might be a possibility, but it would be nice to see the verb in a more complete context.

Thanks. If you can have "kopieren" and "nachschaffen" in the German, then you can have "copy" and "reproduce" in the English. Many (most?) legal texts such as license agreements say the same thing over and over again in a multitude of different ways .

recreate

This is more an educated guess: "Schaffen" (= to create) + "nach" (as in "nachmachen") = recreate
