The site is not a M$ one. They seem well rounded in the news for yesterday or today. The article has the next steps for a group of developers who were fathered with M$ in the middle years of FoxPro. may stayed with that same parent and chose .NET but some left altogether and went other languages, or retired. ;-> i am not sure that Dabo is on the radar of anyone outside of this list and the pyCON that Ed and Paul displayed at.

There is a ton of stuff out there. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer Mimeo.com Memphis TN 901.246-0159 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
