Gosh, I hope I never own a parrot like that, I thought they were supposed to repeat what you said without *too much* distortion :-) Anway, for the record, here is ACT's sentiments about non-current releases. FOr supported users, we provide routinely support for up to a year after any particular release is first provided. If a customer wants to stay with a particular release rather than updating, we can certainly accomdoate this. For projects that want to base line and use the same release for a longer period, we can provide this service too, but that requires a special long term agreement. For non-supported users, generally we will only support the most recent release, and of course even that support is at low priority, with no guaranteed response time. I am afraid that Ronald will not change our sentiments on this, unless of course he wants to become a paying customer, and then he may use all the old releases he wants, and we will provide support!
