>Indeed, Does this mean that only those with VFP 9.0 will be able to upgrade to Sedna when released? And those with 8.0 or less, will first have to purchase 9.0 before purchasing Sedna.

Yes, that is the current plan. But remember that we generally don't announce pricing and upgrade details until just before we release a new product. But in the spirit of transparency, I'm answering this now to let you know what our plans are at this time and what to probably expect, etc.
