Unless I'm missing something, the only business case I can think of (looking at it from MS' perspective) is that if they don't put out a new SP it will a) siginficantly damage their reputation in the community generally, that they've fought so hard to recover after the nadir of 10 years ago and b) following on from that, increasing numbers will go down the Open Source route rather than .Net. In line with that, complaining loudly and repeatedly to them would seem to be the best approach, no? and figure out a way Microsoft can put out a service pack that will be adopted by the > Fox Community. I think the way the community feels at the moment, an SP that fixes the small handful of major bugs without introducing any more would be welcomed with open arms. Even if we (or the MVPs) had to do their testing for them, it would still be better than at present. -- Cheers ============ Brian Abbott ============ _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://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.
