With an infrastructure product like Valentina, its possible that there will
be multiple updates to 2.5.XX. When vendors release new versions with new
features, it often introduces new issues or fundamentally change the way
underlying technology works (dependencies and the like).

If your plan is in good standing, then you'll get a license that will work
for 2.5.10 and 3.0. Valentina 2.x had a lifespan of about two years, so its
likely that anyone who didn't purchase in the last year will need to renew
to get 2.5.10.

All you need to do is renew and you are good. Prices are up now for
upgrading to V3 for all ADKs - server upgrade info is going up today.
