We have a winner! Send me your mailing address so I can send you the
VFP 8.0 polo shirt. I now wish I would have disqualified anyone who is
or was an MVP to allow someone else to win. There is a bit of irony
here though, since I recall it was you who actually suggested the code
name of "Toledo" almost two years ago when the Fox team had the
community vote and submit a code name for us to use for working on VFP
8.0. You better wear it!

So I will give away another VFP 8.0 polo shirt to have someone else win.
This time, the only people who can (or should) answer is someone who
doesn't have a VFP 8.0 polo shirts already. Please don't reply John (I
know you hear that a lot here!). <bg>

This one is going to be hard, I think, and will probably require
research. For a VFP 8.0 polo shirt... Who was I having dinner with last
year when I came up with the name "Europa" as the code name for the
upcoming version of VFP?

Hi Michael. "Whidbey" is the code name for the next version of Visual
Studio .NET, just like "Europa" is the code name for the next version of
Visual FoxPro. The next version of the Microsoft .NET Framework
(version 2.0) will be included in "Whidbey", so it doesn't have its own
code name. You may already now, but "Yukon" is the code name for the
next version of SQL Server. I understand that "ProFox" is the code name
for the next version of the=20

Can anyone list the code names that Microsoft used for VFP 3.0, VFP 3.0
Mac, VFP 5.0, VFP 6.0, VFP 7.0, and VFP 8.0? I will send a very cool
VFP 8.0 polo shirt to the first person who replies with the right answer
here on ProFox (all 6 code names).

---------------------------

What is the "Whidbey Box" ??? I did a google search and it had a url for
Don Box's blog page, but all I could gather from a cursory look it that
it appears to be a name for the .Net Framework, much like "Longhorn" or
"Europa" or other "code names" from M$.
