This looks like great news for Godot! From reading the article, though, I can't understand what "per year" means in terms of console ports. Surely they won't invalidate your port at the end of the year, right? Is it just that you don't receive updates after the year is up?

I think per year of use. I.e. if you want to publish updates for your game, you have to be paying for a license for that year.

Yeah that's the impression I got from the FAQ as well. You must be a current subscriber to have access to the latest commits from the repository, and you must also be a current subscriber at the time you release, and at the time you publish any content updates for your game. There does appear to be an exception for bugfix-only releases, assuming you can make them happen without the latest code from the W4 repository.
