My plans are to continue developing using the "Fox". What's hard for me to believe, is the response to YAG's announcement. Many of us have known for years that sooner or later M$ was going to kill the "Fox". This has not affected our decision to continue using it in the past. Why should it affect us now.
I still have clients using software I developed 20 years ago that refuse to upgrade. It's still working under XP Pro so they have no incentive to change.
If, in the future, I feel the need to switch, I will be searching the world of "open source" for my new language.
I would much rather be dependent on people like Linus Torvalds than a corporation such as M$.
