Microsoft killed FoxPro in 2007. Anyway, here's FoxPro revived

A Hacker News post titled 'Microsoft killed FoxPro in 2007. Anyway, here's FoxPro revived' is drawing attention to foxscript.org, an apparent community effort to revive FoxPro, the database programming language and tool Microsoft discontinued. Commenters appear to be engaging with the nostalgia and technical merit of resurrecting a legacy development tool long after its official end of life. Details about who is behind the project and what exactly has been rebuilt are not clear from the post itself.

Why now: A developer has apparently released a revived version of the discontinued FoxPro language, sparking nostalgia and technical discussion.
