The only change in management that has happened has been Ken and Randy leaving, being replaced, partially, by Milind. Their boss is still the same, as his his boss, and so on up the line. Changing messengers (from Ken to Milind) won't change the message. As the people up the line are the ones that made the decisions, and those people haven't changed, why do think there will be change in the decision?

>More accurately, I believe: you've been told it won't be VFP. I believe you have been told that. Unless I'm missing something, you aren't the decision-maker. Nor would I think that Milind is the decision-maker, who would probably be the same person/position who a few years ago made the decision to move away from dynamic languages, and would probably be the same person/position whose decision is now being contradicted on the ground, within Microsoft and without.
