>Ok. I for one won't be upgrading to any more vfp versions because of the dramatic de-emphasis of .NET interop, web services, web applications etc. in the product. For me these were the important areas to keep VFP alive with the newer technologies ...

You said you didn't upgrade to VFP 8.0 either. I'd like to know what specific features you would like to see for .NET interop and XML web services in VFP. We feel there is a very good story there with VFP being fully compatible with .NET based XML Web services (calling and consuming), full support with .NET interop between VFP and .NET (VFP calling a COM wrapper around a .NET class and .NET calling a VFP COM object), as well as ASP.NET combined with VFP for web applications. Over 20% of VFP developers are doing these things with VFP and that number is increasing all the time. It would be useful for you to post actual features you think are needed in VFP and compare them to what is in the UT wish list to analyze what is missing.
