When are we going to get real time licensing so that we can properly manage our licences and stop the unfair and harsh issued of invoices for very minimal licence over usage?

SELECTserver has been intentionally designed to stress fault-tolerance and access to products in response to years of feedback from frustrated users who could not license their products for various technical reasons ranging from Internet connectivity issues to checked out licenses that failed to return. Consequently, over the last few years, SELECTserver has become a tool for reporting usage and is not intended to be an enforcement mechanism for the reasons just described.

The "...designed to stress fault-tolerance and access to products..." line is to indicate we are making fault-tolerance and access to the products they need a priority for SELECTserver users.
The link you provided seemed to be a discussion of licensing practices and is one example of feedback we've received.
