>>Not officially. But if you have something that does'nt work then you can either pay Stonefield to get support. There is a section on their site about this. Or you can ask question here on the UT and people using SFR and SFQ and even perhaps Doug could help you.

>>No new version anymore. If you want to benefit from all the new things that are in Stonefield Query developer's edition then you'll have to pay to get that new software. The up side to this is that you'll get all the new cool things added to what we used to know as SFR. The down side is that we don't get the source code anymore. So it'll be up to you to decide which route you want to take.

I don't remember but I saw a demo and the product looked really good.

>And of course I am concerned that if they drop support for the new product, as they did with SFQ and SFR, and without a source code, we (the developers) can be really in trouble.

If that becomes the case then we'll have to use something else. That's the IT world. We can't expect no product to be there as long as we want. It's up to a company making a product to determine if it's worth it to improve a tool they're offering.
