Entitled, yes, if under maintenance. You still need to get the activation kit for the new version. In ESS, I think there was download for it - our system admin got it. In PA I believe there's some license link.

Buck,
I'm aware that it's a separate license, but if you're current on Rational Developer, I'm pretty sure you're entitled to the new license. Any internal red-tape one might have to go through is an unfortunate side effect - one that I'm going through now as our BP continues to try to get us switched to PPO. I have 2 days left on my 9.0 trial (which I also notified our BP about).

The licence doesn't automatically follow from the earlier version. I upgraded without charge from 8.5 to 9.0 via Passport Advantage but I had to get new licences. That worked OK for me since I'm the designated admin person here. Individual developers can't easily get the 9.0 licence - they have to go through the designated admin. No idea how it works with ESS.
