Saw the [post](http://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/new-m1-macbook-air/35626) about the compatibility of RW 8.7 on Big Sur/M1 apple chips.  
There was mention of the version 9 that’ll work with both intel and apple chips but my question (and maybe a d\*\*b question) but will this be a paid upgrade?

Most major updates like that are paid, which makes total sense, IMHO.

Hi, RapidWeaver 8 was released in August 2018. All updates in-between have been free and so I am sure this will be a paid upgrade. For me, I am happy to pay the upgrade fee to keep the product evolving and my business intact 🙂
