Why is that interesting?

Do you think we sat back and allowed VFP to be steamrollered when I was on the Fox Team? Hell, no. We fought and fought and fought. Sometimes it was a guerilla effort. Management and strategic direction were against us. People's careers suffered.

Blame MS management all you want....but not the team.

>>>Although I've been wrong before, I can't believe Advisor will hold another VFP DevCon. This year, there were only 35 attendees. They've basically killed it with too much cost for too little benefit. As Tamar pointed out, you're better off selecting one of the other conferences.
