Note page 8 - U4O1 descriptor has been changed.

Features of approved languages for 2008
List of approved languages

I note that one feature expected of an approved language is the ability 
to develop a GUI... and I don't believe Python can do that by itself... 
interesting.

And FoxPro - from my memories of about 10 years ago - is a database.  I 
wonder how it crept in as a full-blown programming language.  Must look 
into that.
