FWIW, my buddy at DEC/Compaq/HP (gaak!) has told me that their latest VMS
release project is continuing (expected to be over a year), so it doesn't
look like VMS
will be killed in the near future.

> PowerHouse 8.30 is in beta as we speak and has been for a number of
months. We posted the request for beta sites on this list. We are planning
an on request release in October, assuming things continues to be positive.
Why "on request"? Because with the numbers of additions and changes, we want
to make sure it's right before we send out a general release.
 
> Just because we're talking about 8.4 doesn't mean that we've forgotten
8.30. This is just good planning. And keep in mind that the 8.4 release
include 8.40 for OpenVMS. In fact we're already planning 8.5.
 
Next month on request - good news, thanks.
An infinite improvement on "no shipping date available".
Hopefully, whoever appoints themselves as guinea pig will post experiences
here.
I'll hopefully get to it in January when things quieten down ....
 
Chris
