Hi Claudio,

I agree that there is need for this kind of dialogue, which I see as considerably different than the 'is VFP dead yet?' threads that appear regularly.

The most important thing that I want to say is that while some VFP MVPs have also been named as .NET MVPs I still see those specific people on the VFP forums and fully active in the VFP community!
This is the FACT, despite one (or more) OTHER VFP MVPs claiming that they gave up the MVP for VFP by taking the MVP for .NET (a false claim, we have been told). Some of them have also stated publicly that they have not in ANY way 'given up' on VFP, but rather they have simply also become users of .NET development tools. I have also seen at least one say that, in his opinion, .NET has some way to go yet (evolutionarily) before it can be considered a good high-productivity tool [he also said he thinks it will be that sooner than later].

As regards magazine content, I see magazines as businesses that only do well if they offer current topics to their readers.
I note too that this place is called Universal Thread, not VFP Thread, and my guess is that it won't be long before .NET forum traffic exceeds VFP forum traffic. It may do so already, for all I know.

Just my opinion.
cheers
