VFP Roadmap Coming

Ken Levy has blogged that the VFP Roadmap will be announced on June 1 and that the life of VFP after 9.0 will be clear. Interop with .Net is the primary goal for what's coming next. There has been speculation for years that Microsoft will kill VFP. One person on the Universal Thread has already guessed that there won't be a VFP 10 and what is being planned is some sort of extension pack for 9.0 and then the plug will be pulled. We can only guess for now. Check back in a couple of weeks for my take on the Roadmap.

My 64 bits worth

Microsoft has been pushing 64 bits for some time now, and it is now catching on. It'll start in the backroom on the servers, then work it's way out to the desktop. VFP won't be 64 bit, but it will run in 32 bit compatibility mode. If you need 64 bit dev tools, look at Visual Studio. As for the OS, my prediction is that Longhorn will be the last 32 bit OS from Microsoft.
