Hi Pete,
thanks for your clarification.
These discussion started this morning following the publication of version 3.53 within a German-speaking FS forum, which is hosted by Flightxpress (http://www.flightxpress.de), the largest FS-publication for the German language area. I think this was also linked to your announcement that people, which buy a license for FSUIPC now, must use version 3.53 or later to be able to register. Additionally one guy reported, that his registration was gone after installation of 3.53 (, which actually later turned out have been somehow a mistake).
Some people obbviously got the impression that they would have to buy a new licence immediatly and their existing licences might be timely limited.
You know how things like these tend to develop within forums, therefore I thought getting a quick clarification from the developer, would be the best way to get this sorted out immediately.
I assume that your clarification will stop these rumours immediately.
Thanks again :-)
