Re: SV: [cobalt-developers] Frontpage 2002 ext on a RaQ2

[Regis <Regis@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just in case some of you weren't aware, there is very little problem using FP
2002 on a server that has FP 2000 extensions.  The vast majority of features
work without any problem.  If someone built a site in FP 2000 then upgraded to
2002 just to maintain it - they'll have no problem.  I forget the exact list of
features that won't work, but they are fairly advanced and most people using FP
don't use them anyway.  I remember one of the features was for managing
sub-domains.  In fact many of the Windows Server ISP's charge extra for FP 2002
extensions because they are so resource intensive, and they're quite buggy also.

Before you drive away too much more business, it might be worthwhile to
investigate exactly the difference in the features and explain it in detail to
your customers - I think the vast majority will find the 2000 extensions
acceptable.
