It looks that way yes. Perhaps got something to do with the upcoming new Zen-fire API.

Why would the time be needed? Just update to NT 7.0 as soon as you have time for this. Though I agree it is a rather short notice, giving in effect just one day to update and switch. Not very professional.

I figured NT 6.5 was a dying platform when they announced the CME change. Ninja said they would continue to make available but handwriting was on the wall. I went ahead and had all my strategies updated to NT7 a few months back but glad I did as it is more stable than NT6.5

I am a little surprised by the zenfire cutoff as that pretty much really kills NT6.5 for many people. Talk about short notice.

In some conversations I had with Zenfire staff I got the impression that they are moving away from retail clients.

Expect more sudden moves.

Interesting if they went that route. I used zenfire at one time but now use rithmic.
