Yes, many of the responses appear to confuse PHD/POW and Architect.
We've tried architect on VMS, and found it of little use to us.
Architect on other platforms apparently includes the PHD/POW functionality.
On VMS PHD is part of basic Powerhouse, and not part of Architect.

What I (and hopefully many other VMS users) want is for the PHD
functionality to be retained in the basic product - it would be difficult to
justify forking out for Architect for just the PHD bit, even if it was included.

We'd like that bit bundled back in again.
There's probably a market for it on other platforms too, but those of us on VMS
have already bought it as part of the Powerhouse product, and there seems to be
considerable distress at the notion of taking it away.
