FAQ Clarification: Which end of 2027?

[Kevin Miller]

I don't have any more information on the date in 2027 yet. It’s a long way off. Let's see how many of you are actually still using it at that point and truly haven't moved and how well we've done from Create - i.e. what we can afford.

Kind regards, 

Kevin

The current FAQ says:


- 'When are you ending support for LiveCode Classic? ... we will
maintain compatibility with supported operating systems until 2027.'


That wording is ambiguous. As Ben said:


> is that Jan 1 2027, or Dec 31 2027?


That is significant - A difference of an entire year!
Can we get a clarification on that?


(This is a general, widely relevant fact in a public FAQ;
it is not only a personal and private account-specific issue.
I may indeed have account-specific or personal case follow-ups,
but it helps, and is standard, to have clear general facts first!)


All other references I see use similar wording:


- 'we haven't changed the licensing for the existing platform which you
can continue to use on the same terms up until its end of life in 2027.'


- 'If you have a current LiveCode license,
LiveCode Classic will continue until 2027'


(This is not a Classic vs Create topic. I enjoyed everyone's views.)


I hope all had a great weekend! :)


Best wishes,
