Default Education with 4 Year $99.00 Upgrade Cost

For people like me who own PT10/11 Education that do not get the upgrade every year for free, but for $99.00. How is that affected by the new policies?

1. If I upgrade prior to September 30, do I get Eleven for Free?

2. If I upgrade to PT12 will I get all the free plugins?

3. Now that Non Education users can upgrade just the software, without support and plugins for 99.00, will my annual cost get reduced?

4. If the annual upgrade stays the same at 99.00 for the education version, will I get the free plugins and support, or will I have to pay another 99.00 like regular non education users do?

5. If I do decide to upgrade, how do I even do that, as there is nothing on the Avid store for upgrading student version from PT10/11 to PT12?

To me, people like me should get some kind of a break in either upgrade pricing and/or the extra's as there should be a significant discount for education users vs regular users as there always has been and like there is now, for anyone buying education today.

For those that may be curious, I own both PTHD10/11 as well as the education version of PT10/11 Vanilla, I get my eligibility for that because we Homeschool our kids, and my son uses PT10/11 Vanilla.
