Future, what future for PowerHouse

The Handbook is a reasonable guide at the moment - at least for syntax. As
stated earlier, 8.10 on OpenVMS is the upgrade path for those who had 8.00
plus those who want a generic (i.e. non-OpenVMS specific) PowerHouse with
access to Oracle and Axiant. If you're not in this category, I would suggest
holding off. We would like to know which VAXisms are most important - i.e.
which would prevent you from moving.
