no written agreement it would seem. Just a check that paid for a license up through (i assume) the end of august, perhaps longer. who knows. I'm pretty sure the oral agreement never included "if you don't behave in a way that I feel is polite I'll terminate your license before it expires".

nats could have saved themselves a huge headache by just refusing to renew the license on sept 1st...or having a written contract that allowed them to terminate for any reason.

We personally purchased non expiring licenses for a sizable, one time upfront sum because we didn't want to deal with licensing headaches and knew we'd be around long enough to make it worth it.

Weren't we suprised when suddenly our admin stopped working cause... suprise suprise, it wasnt really a perpetual license but a 3 month license that we had to "request" be updated every 3 months.

Sell me a car, I pay cash, and then make my car stop in the middle of the road every 3 months unless I get a tow into the dealer to reactivate my car? No thanks.

hey at least the good news is that if xc wins and nats goes under, all the source code is on file with nats attorney... they said so at least... right?
