Do you have a link to Doug's comment?

>FWIW, this followup has been posted over at another forum: http://www.sdtimes.com/blog/post/2010/07/19/Microsoft-breaths-life-into-FoxPro.aspx but Doug Hennig has responded saying that Kittyhawk has nothing to do with VFP at all.

>What is really interesting is the reaction from NET developers bemoaning the dreaded "manager with Excel"/Access amateur who writes something that grows and grows and takes over the office, after which a professional rewrite is needed. Perhaps they should regard that as a prototype rather than a disaster ;-) but there's a strong flavor of LUDDITE imho. It's long been predicted that business users will come to dominate app development, just as it became possible to dial our own phones rather than relying on an operator or even to press an elevator button ourselves without causing a disaster. MS made good $ exposing affordable GUI, networking and office apps to the teeming masses and there's no reason why they won't do it again, especially if Google is doing it for mobile which is a plausible threat to MS's OS dominance.
