The FoxPro community has always been diverse and vibrant, with user groups spread out all over the world. Although VFP9 is the last installment we’ll get from Microsoft, I’m happy to see and re-report that a new group has been created: Iraqi Visual FoxPro Programmers Group (Iraqi.vfppg)

You can read the original announcement here on Foxite.

Founder Ammar Hadi writes:

It was my dream to build this group since about more than 4 years ago, and at that time I send an e-mail to one of the Iraqi Foxers who is a member in foxite too (we never met) and told him that I will work on creating a foxpro group in Iraq. He show his readiness to help me on that. But at that time, I was totally engaged in my Medical study to get the certificate of Neurosurgical Profession. Now it is about a year and a half since I finished my study and training and got the certificate to work as a professional neurosurgeon (with very good marks ;-D ….. ). Now I can say that I got some more time to make my dream come true.

I wish Ammar the very best!
