Ken,
I don't think though that it solves the other problem that Metin is asking for. Which is an ability to have developers create localizations of the runtime where Microsoft doesn't feel there is a large enough demand to distribute a VFPnxxx.dll runtime. If the string resource data was externalized from the DLL into a DBF this would be a trivial thing for any developer to fix up the data.
>I completely agree, looking back on the threads. We never had a press release or any formal announcement about it. <s> It was brought up in messages, and I was just replying to messages. I agree that I should have posted something like this before for clarification.

The announcements will be around the downloads themselves (the design-time DLL localized and help documentation), and will simply make mention of how the toolkit project helped in the creation of it.
