I got a notification from Foxtrot that my license has to be renewed, and that my current serial number has expired. Was I charged for this? I thought licenses were perpetual in the sense that we can own and use the Foxtrot version that we purchased the license for without time limit. For example, if we bought license for Foxtrot 8, aren't we able to use the same serial number to use Foxtrot 8 whenever we want?
Additional Context: I've purchased Foxtrot 8 within the last year, and have been using it without issue. I just updated MacOS (minor update) and Foxtrot is giving me a new license number, saying that the old one expired.
Please clarify.

The message you got was: "Your perpetual license for version 8 of FoxTrot entitles you to periodic automatic renewal of your serial number". So:
- your license for version 8 is actually perpetual, in the sense that you described
- the serial number must be renewed every year from our servers, at no additional cost
