>>>He says "We are using the Visual Studio 2008 Isolated Shell to build an IDE for building Visual FoxPro projects inside Visual Studio. We have plans to include reg-free COM for enabling click-once deployment of Visual FoxPro applications. We are working on a VFP project type, so that we can add a new or existing VFP project to a Visual Studio solution."

>>>I think so that mean we can create VFP projects from VS.NET. That mean VFP.NET. Maybe they should tell us more...
>>
>>Yeah, I do believe that they should give more details. I'd hate to have to wait 206 days for vfpstudio.com to come to light only to be disappointed.

>LOL. Now when have I ever disappointed you?

>More details will be forthcoming as this project is brought to fruition. For now, we (myself, alan stevens, and bo durban) felt that a countdown would be kinda neat. It gives us motivation to stay on target/task with this, and also adds an element of anticipatory mystery to the whole thing. The logo is indeed a Phoenix rising from the ashes which has a lot of meaning, not to mention that this project was announced in Phoenix at Southwest Fox 2007. If you look closely at the logo you may also note that there's a familiar face in there as well. More to come... this is just the beginning.

Thus far Craig, you've always impressed me with your work and contributions to the VFP community. Keep it up! As for the logo, I got the Phoenix meaning immediately, but, congratulations to the artist for embedding our friend! COOL indeed.
