Isn't a lot of VFP already open sourced? It's just the core C libraries that aren't ... and never will be.

I was talking with another VFP developer the other day and we were lamenting how much more difficult it is to develop desktop applications now. Shouldn't software development be getting easier even though the features are getting more powerful? That doesn't seem to be the case, but I'm getting old and more curmudgeony.

Alan,
They haven't ... but recent announcements like making .NET open source have at 
least spread some hope that other products may be open sourced. I would think 
that VFP would be at the end of a very long list.... but a list nevertheless!
