188785, "Is Visual FoxPro Dead", Jim Booth put it very well and I'll quote him:

>"Let's really look at this rumor this time. Microsoft, by corporate policy does not discuss future product plans at all. It (MS) only talks about things that have already been done (perhaps shortly before release). Therefore, if MS was planning the demise of VFP they wouldn't talk about it except to folks who are under Nondisclosure agreements. That means that anyone who knows isn't talking and anyone who is talking doesn't know!"

You know, I read this all the time, yet there web site is constantly filled with info on future products that have not been released. (In fact, isn't the page that talks about the future of VFP a direct violation of this policy?)
I can remember before they came out with Exchange, they were talking it up to anyone who expressed an interest in Notes. And how long have we been hearing about what NT5 will do ??? IMO, MS might have an official policy of not discussing future product plans, but they have no problem doing it...
