(btw this msg was not only to Fernando)

At least the title was not too negative this time....

But why starting another thread on this subject?

We all know that MS will not market VFP outside of the current developper base.
We all know that VFP 8 will enter beta soon.
We all know that VFP 8 will be release somewhere in 2003.
We all know that if MS make enough money with the product, it will continue to develop it.

Do you know that by scaring peoples with this kind of threads, the sales of VFP will sooner or later drop so down that it cross the profit line that keep the product alive?

Why MS or Ken should talk about VFP 8,9 or 10 when all they have to sell was VFP 7 and MSDN?

With VFP 8 around the corner, you have at least a couple of years of VFP works to do...
