http://classicvb.org/petition/So, they’re not only asking Microsoft to create a new version of old VB (i.e., not .NET), but they’re also asking it to be integrated into the VS.NET v8+. Some have cited C#/C++ as an example of this.
HAHAHA! Man, if this doesn’t show how clueless some VB programmers are, nothing does. I mean, seriously, come on! They actually expect MS to say “ok, sure we’ll make VB6.5 v2005 and go away from managed code”? And they think that integrating VB6 right into VS.NET will be a piece of cake? This proves that many VB devs really are clueless when it comes to designing apps and think that there’s some magical power that just makes everything work. The sad part of this is that some of these people are MVPs… I thought that MVPs generally had a relatively high knowledge level and wouldn’t come up with silliness like this…
