Well, the authorization code pretty
clearly states what this license is:<br>
the final hobbyist license, presumably
minted in 2020-03-01.<br>
<br>
So, on the one hand, it is basically not
a personalized license. On the other<br>
hand, it expires on 2022-01-01 and is
the final license, no more after that.<br>
