Hi Wilhelm,
I find this newly installed monitoring process controlling the validity of older, but already fully installed versions an outright unnnecessary
nuisance. Is this part of the new licensing policies that restrict the
use of  LC-Indy versions to the license span you have paid for? I have
got a commercial version extending until August 2016, which - as I
understand it - enables me to use (and produce standalones) with this
commercial version even beyond August 2016.

I'm afraid that that's not correct -- when your current commercial
license expires in August 2016, you will not be able to use any
commercial version of LiveCode or use them to create standalones
unless you renew your license.

This isn't quite correct - it depends on the type of commercial license you received for each LiveCode version you have bought in the past. All licensing issues are best dealt with by contacting supp...@livecode.com - so please use that channel in future rather than the mailing list.

Up until the subscription model style license was introduced, the LiveCode Commercial License was perpetual per version. i.e. If you had a license for a particular version when it was released you can continue to use it forever. Since the subcription model style license was introduced, there are no (new) perpetual licenses - your right to use a commercial version of LiveCode which you have received under the new style license ceases as soon as that license lapses.

Assuming the records we hold for you are correct, it is easy to verify whether you are still entitled to use a particular version of LiveCode: if a particular commercial version will activate with your account (or if you can download an activation file for it), then you are entitled to use it.

If you find that you cannot activate a version of LiveCode which you think you should be able to, please contact supp...@livecode.com to let them know and we'll investigate.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
