Almost every new applications we write relies on 15 years of VO code.
So yes, we start new products in VO too. Last year we've moved to ADS.
Even for a products which is very compatible with normal DBFCDX we had
to spend a lot of time rewriting things. Even when I trust Vulcan to
be maintained better than VO now, it will take year(s) to go to Vulcan
for us.

So in the meantime I would be willing to spend money to work in VO
more comfortable. And unfortunately, VOPS did not prove to be the way
to achieve that.
