Did anyone see another announcement, separate from the above attached roadmap from Ric Lewis? In his letter, it states:
"We are committed to providing you updates and support for the V8.4 OpenVMS operating environment through at least December 31, 2020." (my italics)
Surely The Register did not base its article on this alone. Its not seemingly unlike HP to publish this type of "at least / until" roadmap for other technologies (e.g. Itanium).

Please... correct the history.
What are the errors?

Yes. Basically like a WebEx or GoToMeeting type presentation.
BTW, there are two sessions.
http://connect-community.site-ym.com/events/event_details.asp?id=326729
at 12:00pm-1:00pm India Standard Time (UTC/GMT + 5:30 hours) which trans-
lates to 2:30 AM EDT. I'm, hopefully, asleep at that time. :)
http://connect-community.site-ym.com/events/event_details.asp?id=326728
at 9:00pm - 10:00pm India Standard Time (UTC/GMT + 5:30 hours) which
translates to 11:30 AM EDT. Just in time for lunch.

Brett Cameron, whom I know (he and I tossed back a few beers back in March),
presented the "OpenVMS Application Modernization Series=II" webinars back in
May, so I presume he's continuing this series with this one. I've sent off
an email off to ask for an abstract and other details. If this is Brett as
presenter, most definitely join in. Brett's a great speaker, very knowlege-
able and, hopefully, you'll enjoy his New Zealand accent.

Hello all,
I'm not sure what I've done...but since the move to a real 7200...DECnet has stopped working. ;)
marianne#ping 1.13
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte DECnet echos to atg 0 area.node 1.13, timeout is 5 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 220/261/292 ms
GEWT::B4$ set host mim
%SYSTEM-F-UNREACHABLE, remote node is not currently reachable
(takes awhile to time out)
The 7200 IS configured to be an area router, and I changed the MAC address to match 9.1023.
marianne#sh int fastethernet1/0
FastEthernet1/0 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is i82543 (Livengood), address is aa00.0400.ff27 (bia 00d0.6353.881c)
NCP>sh node 9.1023
Node Volatile Summary as of 10-JUN-2013 01:29:42
Node State Active Delay Circuit Next node
Links
9.1023 reachable QNA-0 9.1023
marianne.gimme-sympathy.org (10.10.0.5) at aa:00:04:00:ff:27 [ether] on eth0
Any ideas? Everything looks to be in order...

That's 3 words, Ian!

Brian, can you update the config generator and change Ethernet1/0 to
FastEthernet1/0 and push a new config?
Done!
Yup! Thanks!

Is "DECnet echo" Cisco-speak for Ethernet Loopback packets? Or MIRROR packets? Either way, one wonders why they felt it was necessary to pick their own off the wall names for these documented mechanisms.
