I would have no problem posting it there. I heard the whining, bitching and moaning first hand. It is easy to be flame-proof when you have your story straight.

Yep. I still subscribe to it because I still get some value from it. I also subscribe to CoDe and FoxTalk. While there may be philosophical issues at FPA, I also think a major problem with the magazine is lack of VFP Developers not writing articles for it. There really is no other well for them to draw from for articles. If we are not writing, they have nothing to publish. I know I should start writing some for any of the pubs, but the time... I also do not know if their policies are part of the problem in bringing in new material since I have never approached them about articles. Seems, thought, I have heard a rumbling or two about some hurdles there.
