Maybe he should have said "high-profile, Microsoft affiliated well known names". IOW, these guys see a profit(conversions,conferences, etc.) in pushing the latest stuff coming out of MS, not necessarily for the good of the community(And really there's nothing wrong with that - I think we should just see it for what it is). But these guys only represent a tiny fraction of all the talented vfp developers there are who aren't necessarily jumping on the .NET bandwagon...
>I know I just snipped a portion of your reply, but it does make me wonder why these "most well known names in VFP" would join that specific team? That was somewhat of a rhetorical question as it feels that they are doing so because that's the direction things are moving; away from Foxpro.
