My understanding is that one of the requirements for continuing with the program is to develop commercial software. I know that several on this list sell some commercial software. As a VFP developer, however, I haven't ever developed commercial software. Has M$ hassled anyone for not meeting their contractual obligations to the ISV and M$ Partner Program?
I'd like to pull the trigger and start getting my DVDs but I don't know what kind of "pound of flesh" M$ is going to require of me. Thanks.
