Datomic is awesome. However, I am concerned about the Datomic Starter tier which states "The Datomic Starter license is perpetual, but is limited to 1 year of maintenance and updates." Previously we could download and use Datomic without registration with some sensible limitations. This was ideal for small projects that don't need support. We could update our Datomic instance to keep up with bug fixes and feature enhancements. Are we now locked into a 1 year window of code quality and features based on our registration?

I think you are talking about the"Datomic Free" option which is still available: http://www.datomic.com/get-datomic.html http://www.datomic.com/get-datomic.html

  Thanks. I didn't scroll down because it isn't listed with the others.

    It's unfortunate that the "free" version only supports two peers. No scaling and/or convenience for open source projects, apparently!

> Are we now locked into a 1 year window of code quality and features based on our registration? Yes. Datomic Starter (nee. Datomic Pro Starter) now gives you one year of updates for free after which you need to pay to receive further updates. Previously you could renew your (free) Datomic Pro Starter license perpetually. Datomic Free is unchanged and is still free and receives continuous updates.
