Wow, that's a blast from the past. In all honesty, I would never have thought that some people would still be using VFP 11 years later! I thought there would be stragglers for a few more years at most, and then it would be more like maintenance mode for COBOL apps. Then again, I haven't regretted my decision to switch to Python. It has taken me on an incredible journey, and allowed me to be part of the birth of OpenStack, and I spoke about it a few years ago before I left Rackspace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0QRkzMW3OdA Having said that, I must confess that all my free time for playing lately has been consumed by learning Go. It's a very interesting language, and quite a change from working with a dynamic language like Python. -- Ed Leafe --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/signed text/plain (text body -- kept) application/pgp-signature --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.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.
