Hello Cesco,

Thanks for the update.Really disgraceful in my opinion this "forced" push toward subscriptions, without the option of a permanent license (even at a premium price).
As a customer I don't receive this as a positive thing, I want to have internal control on when a machine will cease to function.

Not too long ago, there was a discussion in this very group when IBM announced this to happen. There were pro and con arguments. Maybe take a search in the Midrange archives?

:wq! PoC
