After reading customers' messages posted here after the pre-sale announcement, I came to the conclusion that no matter how Jelsoft handles licensing, people will be complaining.
To Jelsoft: Please offer vB4 Forum & Suite free of charge, make all licenses active till the next vB5 release with free support for the whole period. After doing all these, tell your development team they won't get paid for their hard work, tell the real estate and utilities companies you won't pay your bills. And then file for the bankrupcy.
This way all your customers will achieve the final satisfaction and say: "Wait a minute! Jelsoft's licensing wasn't bad after all. Pity they went out of business. Oh well, that's life."

People tend to forget that there are costs associated with the major product redesign. R &D is never cheap.
