Please don't tell me 2.79 is the end of v4 license users

Hi,
not sure right now.
We're working on implementing Octane in Blender 2.8 right now.
It's important to still support Blender 2.79, because it's very stable and productive, so we'll see Octane 2019.1 for 2.79 for sure.
Blender 2.8 implementation is totally different than 2.79 (basically it was required to start from scratch) and we need to evaluate if V4 will be implemented, or if there will be support for 2018 and 2019 only.
I'll keep you updated!
Thanks!

I'll second the idea to have v4 for Blender 2.8 for perpetual license holders, please don't force subscription

2.8 is my favorite version of blender now for a while already so getting octane in would be great.

I'm an hobbyist so subscription is a big NEVER and would like to upgrade my V2 licence to last version, but I still don't undertsand all versions and subscription it not clear and I can't find any clear explaination on the website, like this is some kind of secret that it will go all subscription, and trying to hide it by calling it 2018 or something else. Can someone confirm this:
-V4 is the last perpetual version and will eventually be obsolete - ok it will be compatible with Blender V2.8 but what about V2.81 et later ?
-2018 is in fact V5 but only subscription
-2019 is in fact V6 and only subscription
