New File Transfer Client Released today - WS_FTP Professional 2007.1

Hi Everyone -
Our parent company Ipswitch and their File Transfer division announced a new release of the WS_FTP Professional client today -- Version 2007.1

I pulled a few of the new features from their announcement:

SECURITY

* Keyboard-Interactive Authentication: Client support for dynamic client-server authentication. Users can authenticate and connect to SSH servers that require connecting clients to respond to server defined prompts for authentication, in addition to username.

* Configure Email Notifications for SMTP Server Authentication: Users can easily set-up email notifications to be automatically sent when a file transfer occurs. Email notifications can now be configured for SMTP server authentication.

USABILITY

Storage Utilization Displayed when Connecting to WS_FTP Server: Users connecting to WS_FTP Server with the WS_FTP Professional file transfer client get a real-time view of their server disk space utilization.

Copy Fully-Qualified URL to Clipboard: Right-mouse-click and copy the URL to a remote file and paste into another document or email. The complete URL link includes host, server, folder and filename.

Enhanced Workspaces: Save and instantly reconnect to frequently used local and server connections. Enhanced capability lets you add descriptive comments for each saved workspace.

Enhanced Logging: The SSH Authentication method used to connect to an SSH server is now included in the connection log.

Hi, guys:
So, is this WS-FTP Pro 2007.1 an "upgrade" or a whole new version...I believe the "upgrades" are free (am I correct ?) which can be downloaded via the Ipswitch Download Centre, provided one has the appropriate info. ie: Serial # or Activation Code or License Key and Email Address ...
