>One idea I had to improve VFP presence is to release news articles to some of the computer magazines. He in the UK we have some magazines, Computer Shopper for example that are more business related, when VFP8 is released sending a press release to these magazines would make VFP a better know product, as well as developers reading them, many business mangers also would see VFP mentioned. I don't think this would cost much either.

That will happen, but realize this happened for VFP 7 and hardly any publications decided to run a story or news item about it. We cannot control what magazines and publications decide to write about or report news about.
