Hello all,<br>
<br>
The link above is to a rather simple and marginally formatted upgrade guide<br>
to help you get an understanding what we are going in terms of upgrading our<br>
current user base.<br>
<br>
Probably our biggest change is going to be dropping our "connections" system<br>
and going to a per deployment model for VDN developers. The five connection<br>
Embedded Server will continue to be royalty free of course. But we've found<br>
over the last few years that the connections system was very confusing.<br>
<br>
There are going to be some very big changes as well in some core products -<br>
<br>
- Valentina Office Server is going to get reporting services, for the most<br>
part, at no additional cost<br>
- Until the final two mystery features are added to Valentina Studio Pro,<br>
you'll be able to use VSP for free - meaning, you can create reports and the<br>
like, but the reports will have watermarks on them. You can of course order<br>
VSP, and using a full serial number will make those watermarks go away<br>
- If you don't know that Valentina Reports is coming - well, it is :-)<br>
- ADK Pro will have a name change (its referred to as ADK + in the<br>
document), but we will allow you to pick any three ADKs rather than have a<br>
single dev tool. The same goes for VDN Platform edition<br>
<br>
If something is unclear, please let me know. Im posting this to our list so<br>
that we can figure out what's not so easily understood before we finalize<br>
our releases.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
