Oh, that would be pretty neat if they would open source VB6 or any previous version. I wrote a bunch of that code (like the VBX interface for example) and it would be fun to see it again.

It would be awesome. I know of some clients that would pay decent money to keep their VB6 apps running, if we had the source I'd happily be able to provide that service. Some of the DCOM+ stuff I wrote back in the day is still used in production as it just works. And it works really well.
