It wasn't a conspiracy theory. (Why do apologists always spring to Microsoft's defense at the first whiff of smoke?) VFP has been dropped from MSDN. Cetin says it is still in the ($$$) Universal subscription so it may not technically be dropped. But it has become a nonproduct in the Enterprise / Premier level, and presumably below.
The real question is why wasn't this announced here? Are we diehards expected to take Calvin's accounts of chess games he wrote as a kid as sustenance?
I would love to learn that it was a "simple oversight." If it was, I will apologize and shut up.
>Why is that conspiracy theories always come out when a simple oversight happens? There are lots of disks and lots stuff on each disk. They missed putting it on the list. Nothing more.

>>I am organizing my MSDN disks -- wow, this Saturday is off to a wild start -- and noticed the VFP disc, 2488.2, is no longer listed as part of the collection. (
