Dear all,

An update on this topic: in the past couple of months we reached out to the
major users of the old-style API key use. All but one have changed - and
I'm chasing the last. Besides these, there are a large amount of small uses
of said old style, and we're considering reaching out to them as well via
email.

That said, I'd like to schedule the decommission of the old use to the end
of February. Please keep this in mind if you're affected.

Regards,
Robert
