Interesting discussion I haven't closely followed. I recently did some small VFP project for one developer. I asked a very low pay rate because I didn't work on client basis before. Anyway, everything was great.

Then I did some more work. And somehow this developer now disappeared. I'm not sure what happened, I can call him, of course, but I just don't know what to think. Last e-mail correspondence I had on Friday a week ago, I sent some stuff I done on Sunday and haven't heard anything since then...
