I wonder if that is a stand in name until the VFP community can come up with
the 'real' code name, like we did for VFP 8.0
Normally the code names are city names., but what about calling it TOM in
memory of Tom Rettig and Tom Pipper?
Comments?

Europa is pretty cool, if you are a 2001, 2010 fan.
What about 2069? ( OK Europa does not play a big part (any part? ) in that
book )

Sorry, too much like MS Bob. Europa is pretty cool, if you are a 2001,
2010 fan.

(Posted in a different thread...)
Considering VFP's overall relationship to .NET I think that Europa is a
good name.
As the moon/planetoid with unrealized potential Europa is to the gas
giant Jupiter, so too is VFP to the bloated ephemeral .NET.

When the Moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of Visual FoxPro
The Age of Visual FoxPro
