Is forever really forever?

Lorena.

Ahem, You are right to bring this back. I think that LC has tried to answer all these questions over the course of a couple of years. Yet it seems that there is no complete "FAQ", however it was piecemeal assembled, that answers questions such as yours. I suspect that such answers have not yet been fully fleshed out.

Try asking Heather directly; she always responds. And let us know what she said.

Thanks Craig!
I'll take your advice. I see that Heather is a moderator on this forum, so I'll ask her directly.
Hi Heather, I have two questions for you:
a) Will LiveCode SERVER remain as it is? (Or will it be eliminated or compulsorily linked to some devilry?)
b) Will Live Code Indy lifetime licenses really be lifetime? (i.e., will they be converted to Create Lifetime) or will you betray your customers' trust?
I think a lot of people with Indy Lifetime would like to know...
Thanks in advance!

Yes, server is an important one for me too.
I’m not sure changes to existing installations can be enforced, but then what do I know.

Let's hope she responds.

[SparkOut]

Oh I'm sure Heather will respond, she always does.
Let's hope the message the company gives contains some reassurance.

[richmond62]

Oh, we've had 'reassurance' many, many times before . . .

Reassurance is not what's needed: what is needed is legally binding undertakings that are adhered to.

Such as releasing ALL the open source components (which has not happened).
