Thanks for clarifying that. So, if businesses always update in a timely way to the latest release there is no charge, right?
It is a pain to update huge systems to the latest Java, latest version of Haskell’s compiler and libraries, move to Python 3, etc., etc. but there is also a real cost to long term support for old software, I am especially thinking of important security updates.
