I'll 2nd that! But my real concern is how this is going to affect the
overall development schedule of Vantage. It really ticks me off to think
that they might put feature & functionality enhancements on hold for a year
or more while they concentrate on migrating databases.

Is Progress "broken" ? Why "fix" it ?! With the exception of the rev 9
issues earlier this year, hasn't it been a stable platform? MS sure isn't
know for stability or performance. The whole MS migration sounds like
something designed to appeal to potential new customers, rather than
Epicor's existing customer base.

About the only good that might come from it is adding table security, or
allowing data updates via ODBC or other tools. But they could do that with
Progress as it stands.

Hopefully never. I'd like to see them run it on Linux or FreeBSD.
I'm very tired of forking over money to MS.
