Mel,

I have joined a meeting wiht Ken in November last and was just as enthousiastic as yourself. Meanwhile I have joined a 2 days course and I must say very impressive. Unfortunately - or maybe fortunately - I shall not be able to join the next coming meeting (short holidays planned long ago) but I am convinced this will not be the last meeting so I will join them on next occasion. I am very much looking forward to the coming new version 6, Ken promissed this will be a version with VFP in mind.
The only drawback (everything cant be perfect) ist the pricing system - however I do realize SAAS is not hunting for the same commercial succes as VFP - it was very difficult for MS to make any money with VFP, The pricing system SAAS has now introduced is expensive however I also understand that it should not be a thing for newcomers, they are willing to do something however when you enter 'real' business they would like to have a share as well which is understandable.
Hope to meet you on the Servoy forum one day.

Regards,

Koen
