Valentina 2 will have new features, including functionality for dealing
with other Paradigma products. It will be a paid upgrade and there will
be upgrade pricing.

Valentina 2 wont ship until vServer is ripe, and it isnt ripe yet. We
will let the list know once vServer is in beta (Im sure you will want to
have a good look then!). And I expect that the beta period will be long
enough so that serious problems can be shaken out.

I think its fair to give free upgrades to people who buy new products
within a period of time before releasing a new version. Im not going to
give any number at this point without carefully considering it. The time
to ask is when vServer is in beta.

Frankly speaking, now isnt the time to be asking. Without vServer in
beta, you can be assured that you are going to be well before even the
most generous of free upgrade periods. So please ask again once vServer
is in beta, Ill be able to give you a solid answer.
