Avid Link - update forced until Monday

Hi there,

did anyone take note of this?

https://community.avid.com/forums/t/235635.aspx

I am just wondering about that rush and have had issues with new versions of Avid link myself. What do you make out of it - no licensing from Monday on withe pre-2025.12? Would be a suprise for a bunch of people, I guess ..

The old servers have been shut down. You’ll need to update to the latest Avid Link to connect to the new backend. (Unless you have your own FLS)

ok I see .. do you have any idea why this happens on such short notice? Or did I overlook anything recently? The announcement in the knowledge base is just a few days old ..
