"reverse engineering" ??
25 years ago I joked about starting a company called "CopyCat Software"
and all we would do is duplicate expensive mainframe software. Of
course we would need as many lawyers as programmers :)

Without in the least wishing to opine on the question itself, I just got an
email from a recruiter looking for a number of skills of which assembler was
listed first. Some of the description:
1. Good technical skills in the Mainframe platform - Assembler, COBOL, JCL,
VSAM, DB2, EXPEDITOR, FILE- AID, CICS.
2. Good Analytical skills. Should be able to read the code and create Design
Specs.
3. Candidate having experience in reverse engineering is an advantage.
4. Exposure to Cloud/Distributed technologies will be an added advantage.
I can pass it along off-list to anyone who's interested. Me, I just thought
the timing was good.
