Gee Thanks Altera, I really enjoy having a break waiting on your license server

Project behind schedule... but Quartus decides that today is the day
to demand a new license file.

Which the server has promised but not yet mailed.

Don't you just love control-freak software?

Note to self: Next time don't ignore the "your license will expire in
xx days" messages.

They are pretty quick getting the licenses out, as a rule. I usually
get mine in a couple of minutes.

Never saw any such messages.

Given that Quartus is locked with a USB dongle, I maintain that having
to renew the license every year is control-freakism, not reasonable
behavior.

And two days later, still waiting on the file. Obviously something
broke in the process.
