>>How about Kylix being rated "Best Developer Tool" in February at LinuxWorld Expo?
>
>JR, ultimately all that seems to say is that Kylix was rated best among the choices on the ballot by the people who voted. If it was at a Linux show then I'd expect VFP (and most other Microsoft tools) to be out of the running since they don't run under Linux/UNIX.

I'd agree. Those venues favor propriatary tools, and among propriatary tools Kylix is probably #1 in Linux, but way behind KDevelop. More long time Linux coders probably use EMACS, or (vi + gcc) manually, on a console, than any other tools. The number of GUI RAD DEV tool users in Linux appears to be a function of how many WinXX VB, PB, etc... users are migrating to Linux.
