Ric, good message. One comment however. See below.

>In the last year alone, the quantity of material has reduced - the quality of issue covered has dynamically increased. I am happy with Foxtalk. I don't do VPA - just don't have the time.

>So, who is unhappy with FoxTalk? IMHO, those who already know heaps more than me about VFP. They don't like FoxTalk being smaller because there is a good chance they already KNOW about the articles content in the first place. Instead of being unhappy, maybe they could contribute something, just once...
There is another reason why more articles should be in Foxtalk. A reader should be able to make a choice. I certainly don't read every article, instead I read an article if the subject has my interest. There are many topics that I don't know much about, and although reading an article about such a topic would certainly enlarge my level of knowledge, if I don't want to specialize in that topic, then I'll skip the article (time is precious). But if there are only 2 or so articles in an issue, then I have only very limited choice and it may then even happen that I lay it aside without even reading one article.
