Sorry but I do not agree. Upgrading brings in new usability and opportunity matrix. You as a consultant have to explore what is good for you to leverage and what will require refactoring in your code base to continue working. If you were a Dr. would you entertain talking to the pharma reps on the new drugs they had, or would you condemn them to taking your patients money? >> >> I see M$ devs like myself referencing ruby more and more.

I say that makes no business sense. -------------------------- Or you make an event driven application and you message between ruby and .net and whatever else you need to work with.
