German DevCon: Keynote
After Doug's Vista session, the room filled again for the keynote, "Visual FoxPro 9 and Beyond", presented by yag. Wait! Didn't Microsoft end VFP development? What is this "Beyond" stuff?
Before Alan got started, he talked about Rainer and gave him the Visual FoxPro Lifetime Achievement Award. Well done and deserved, Rainer!
Now yag moved onto the meat of the keynote. First, review of the announcement earlier this year. No more development on core VFP. SP2 has been released. Sedna will be released soon. VFPX shared source. The "Beyond" is the community support from VFPX and the upcoming Sedna release.
Unfortunately, Alan had a hard drive failure and could not show his demos.
