Thank you for this, Michel. At least now I *know* that I've been heard.

Cheers,

>>Since I can find *no* messages in the "OLE Automation" category for July or August, I presume that this category was newly added as a result of the conference.
>
>That category was added yesterday.
>
>>That suggests that adding a category is a straightforward exercise, once agreement has been reached to do so.
>
>The addition of that category, which happened when the conference was running, doesn't mean it was straight forward.
>
>>As to your comment in the other thread that some recent suggestions are not related to VFP 'support', the existing categories "Conferences and Events", "Contracts, Agreements...." and "Internet Applications" are three that qualify similarly, in my humble opinion.
>
>There is a big distinction on the existing categories and a wish list one.
>
>As for Internet Applications, this relates to doing Internet Applications using Visual FoxPro. This is what the original focus was all about.

>>The debugger is mysterious to many of us. In fact I wonder what percentage of the UT population make *regular* use of it. It could just be that having a category for this would spur many more to ask much more about it. I, for one, sure cannot see what harm there would be in trying and finding out.
>
>There isn't that much messages about debugging. That's one of the reasons why it is not there yet. Debugging related messages may go in Visual FoxPro in general.

>>I see a Wish Discussion category in a similar way, but with possible added bonuses. And maybe some really BIG bonuses too!!!
>
>There won't be a wish list category. To add to that, we'll have something more interesting, as per what we have now, to built your wishes.
>
>>In the worst case the new categories would stay unused. What is the problem with that???
>
>There is a problem with that. You may not see it because you are on the other side of the table. Does your car dealer put some cars in the show room which will never be sold? It might not be the appropriate example, but you probably know what I mean.

>>In the probable case there will be no added message traffic, but rather a dispersal of those messages amonst some more categories. The way the UT operates, this is not a problem at all (other than the possibility that there will be more categories for the SysOps to re-distribute messages to).

>Assumptions

>>In the best case there will be much more message traffic as a result of new categories 'reminding' members of questions/comments/etc that may not be immediate but nevertheless have presented challenges in the past. And the whole objective of the UT, I thought, was QUALITY high-volume message traffic.
