>It has been proposed that the name of Visual FoxPro 8.0 be officially changed to Visual FoxPro.NET, aka VFP.NET, upon its forthcoming release in early 2003. This would not entail any functional changes to the product, but purely a change in the way that VFP is presented and marketed. Instead of being an adversary of .NET, VFP would become a part of it, thereby changing both people's perception of VFP and the VFP community's perception about .NET. Do you agree, and would you be willing to endorse an immediate letter to Microsoft to that effect?
We would need to squeeze it a little bit. Also, the letter statement is not necessary.
