VFP can produce and consume web services which is one important aspect of .NET. Having VFP run on the CLR (Common Language Runtime) would remove what is powerful and different about VFP. It appears we would lose our fast local database, fast text handling and macro substitution. The CLR and Visual Studio.NET are only parts of .NET.
