I suggest cooperative advertising that boosts this site as well. Why don't we give away 3 months free premier membership to those purchasing Visual Foxpro and Visual Studio. After three months of use I am sure that end users of VFP will stay with the UT.

I suggest cooperative programming that has the potential to boost product sales for VFP based addons as well. Let's get Microsoft to agree to put brochures in the box giving away. For example put the free "codebook" framework on the MSDN CD. Put Rick Strahls free "wwIPStuff" on the MSDN CD. Put sample applications using both of these on the MSDN CD.

I am not speaking of course for the owners of the above products and services. A decision of this magnitude is theirs alone. But since these things are already free. Why not help new users of Visual Studio decide to use VFP because of our Open Source styled community.

Ask Microsoft, to extoll the benefits of VFP when communicating with SQL server. On the outside of the Visual Studio Box.

Well there you have it. My input. If need be I would be happy to volunteer to be on any committee that the UT would like to set up.
