This is how I understood it to be, as it is perfectly logical.  However, after consultation with our local Bentley agent here in South Africa, I was informed otherwise - that an additional usage fee would be levied, hence my query on this forum.  Many thanks.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: Upgrade from Ver 8i to 10</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/thread/358097?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 29 Feb 2016 18:58:22 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:e8f87156-19cc-454e-80db-979bf0e54016</guid><dc:creator>Jeremy Hoesly</dc:creator><description>Yes, licenses are not version-specific for activation and billing purposes. So usage of MicroStation V8i and MicroStation CONNECT edition will simply count as a usage of MicroStation. Please note that MicroStation usage is counted per machine. So both versions could literally be running simultaneously  on the same machine within the same hour and count as a single usage.&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
