I haven't said I think there will be such a decision. What I described were two changes that might affect the previous decisions of these decision-makers to whom you refer: first, the technological possibility, right now, of implementing VFP in .Net, which we had previously been told was technologically impossible (accurate enough at the time, although not totally so it turns out, but no one knew this until Hugunin spent that fateful weekend trying to prove to himself it couldn't be done with Python); and second, the sea-change in the perception of dynamic languages for the development of serious applications, a change which threatens to leave C# and VB.Net out in the cold, regardless of how much good stuff is ported to them from VFP. And I suggested that those in favor of such happening tell the messenger.
We probably disagree only in our assessment in how low is the degree of probability of success. I am not optimistic about the flexibility of large organizations in responding to changes in external conditions. OTOH, the individual effort is small, so the risk (of wasted effort) is low also.
>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?
