Ken's been on the job five months, not six. In my view, in that short time, he's already done more for VFP's profile and visibility than any other person at Microsoft.

To suggest that there was any "standard" that we were holding Robert Green to, and that Ken hasn't wildly exceeded that ersatz-standard, is laughable.

The only standard I can see applying in this case is the level and tone of whining. Your're welcome to whine as usual, just please don't be inventing things like "standards" and "elapsed-time" to suit your ever-crumbling debating positions.

I read the complaints and quite frankley, I don't see where they have diminished as far as the VFP ommissions are concerned. I do remember how Ken's predessor used to get hammered for these issues. All I see are promises that "efforts are on-going...."
