This message is for those of you who were lucky enough to attend this year's FoxTeach. The rest of you, go get a cup of coffee. :)

How was the conference? I've never been there, so I don't know if it is in the same vein as DevCon. How does it compare to DevCons of the past? It's too late for me to go to Devcon this year, but for next year, if I had to choose to go to only one FoxPro conference, which would you recommend? (I'll probably ask the same question in June, after DevCon)

I know that Ken Levy's presentation was well-received from the posts here, but how were some of the others? One person who I'm surprised hasn't posted any sort of follow-up was John Peterson. Anyone who attended his sessions, I would appreciate an objective critique, just to see if John is as good as he thinks he is.

Bottom line, was the conference worth the expense? I know I always sound like I'm harping on the cost of these things, but with limited resources (time, money, previous knowledge), I have to decide very carefully where my educational budget will be spent. Ask yourselves: if I had to pay for everything out of my own pocket, plus lose the time spent there that I could be using on app development, would I do it again?

Finally, what sort of rumors (or rumor control) were circulating at the conference? Any news of VFP 7.0, or even a patch for 6.0 to clear up some of the C0000005 crashes? Any comments on the future of VFP, the incessant Fox-is-dead rumors, or any fallout from the aborted VFPDA effort here?

Thnaks in advance for the info,

Bill Yater
