Dear PowerHouse List

In a recent HP3000-related news post, at:
http://3000newswire.blogs.com/3000_newswire/2010/07/speedware-portfolio-gains-powerhouse-tool.html

This was reported:
"For more than two decades in the 3000 market, Speedware and Cognos competed
for business in what were called Fourth Generation Languages. But the
companies took very different development routes once HP announced its exit
from the marketplace. Cognos last released a major version of PowerHouse in
2004 with the 8.4 release. The company was purchased by IBM in 2008, and the
Automated Development Tools group accounts for a small fraction of Cognos
sales today. *Cognos announced it will end active support for PowerHouse on
Dec. 31.*"

Has anyone here heard about this?  Can anyone confirm or deny the part in
italics?
