It sounds like? a real shame. A lot of
programmers have developed some
much for openvms, and now they are just going to stop it.
This does not at all
mean that VMS is going to just up and disappear.
That's ludicrous. To bring VMS
up to date so to speak; that would be "artistic" ownership under federal
law. A wall owner was just sued over tearing down his wall that graffiti
artists drew on. It's not all just HP here.
You're talking about the
American legal system, in which the victor is
the one who can hire more lawyers. Do you think you can hire more
lawyers than HP?
Just keep running your machines and be happy. There is no reason to
get all excited about this. -Dave
