All,
It's been 3 years since AD chose a different path for licenses. I would
like to announce that the Ultimate edition of Eagle v7.7 is still
chugging along nicely on systems that are not connected to the
Internet. Additionally, I haven't had to spend anything to use it...
not even a nickel! It's still doing everything I need to do.
When v7.7 is no longer adequate, I will seek solutions that offer
off-line licensing. If AD/Eagle is among that group, we'll talk again.
If not, well... that's fine, too.
I see that many of the pre-v8 users still check this newsgroup on
occasion. It's a good thing. However, I do miss Olin. It was always
refreshing to read his matter-of-fact posts.
I know that Jorge was in the middle of a firestorm about this time in
2017. I believe he handled it very well considering how poorly the
transition was was managed at upper levels. My hat's off to you,
buddy! You had a tough job and you took point on it.
My best to Jorge and the Eagle crew, and to all the Eagle users both
pre- and post-v8.
Enjoy,
- Chuck
