If VMS management do not do something to keep Oracle on VMS and in fact
grow its presence on VMS, I think it may in fact signal the true end of
VMS. It will send a strong signal.

Remember that there is that suppposed 10 billion buck fund to help port
software. If HP isn't going to use any of it to help VMS, then it also
sends quite a strong signal about HP's intentions with reagrds to VMS.
With that 10 billion fund, you'd think tyhey would have already givenm a
big grant to Tom Linden to port PL1 to VMS-IA64 already.
