Hi Jim,

The Ladybug mechanism was put in place largely because there was no clear means for those developer communities to impart gaffes and bugs to the product teams and this provides that.

On the other hand, there are several avenues available to the average VFP developer to impart information to your product team. There's the UT, beta newsgroups (for the private beta users), and other means. As well, most of us know most of you, and - believe me - we all hear from our friends in the outside world on what's right and what's wrong.

So, we believe that it's bureaucratic overhead we simply don't need. It will suck resources from us and accomplish nothing that we're not already accomplishing.

Of course, feel free to post requests to add VFP. I'm not averse to this, just don't see a huge groundswell of support. If that groundswell materializes and I'm proven wrong - hey, great!
