Why is Visual FoxPro no longer in Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET?

Visual FoxPro 7.0 will not be included in the upcoming Visual Studio .NET product. Because Visual FoxPro 7.0 is not a Microsoft .NET language and does not share the Visual Studio .NET IDE, Microsoft has decided to ship it ahead of, and separately from, Visual Studio .NET. This will enable FoxPro developers to benefit sooner from the new features of the product and enjoy the productivity enhancements that it provides.

Yes, its a bit out of date, but this is from MS and is on an MS web site.


>I am curious to know if MSFT has/will have to tell the world why VFP is not in Visual Studio.NET. Have there been any press releases? Or is it our job to defend every time someone says that VFP is MIA because it is not part of Visual Studio any more?
