Hi,

I think I understand, but recreating (Universe) problems to make software 
portable seems to be a bit ridiculous. Not sure of the nature of problems that 
you recreated, but I take your point. However....

Is Universe still alive? (I am trying not to sound as ignorant!)
How many Universe customers are migrating to jBASE? How many already migrated?
Could not we finally forget about these UV compatibility issues?
<ignorant>UV seems to be dead to me :)</ignorant>
UV seems to be dead for many other customers.

Were efforts spent to be (fully) Universe compatible worth of it? Would not be 
better to give advices to guys who port their own software and to fix T24 to 
run correctly on jBASE? I bet that T24 R06 will not run on Universe :)
Migration is always a big project. I know that you were trying to make it 
easier.

I recall one clever Temenos guy whom we met this year at Temenos Community 
Forum in Lisbon. He showed us T24 compiled as Java native application (yes! 
:)). It looked impressive (not because it was Java). He shown us also jBASIC 
grammar. We have asked him - "could you share"? Answer was no: "it took over 2 
years (or so) to create this bloody grammar". Explanation was simple - you can 
not imagine how some of the constructs execute and that some are valid. Temenos 
has spent a lot of time on 
replicating jBASIC/compiler behaviour instead of telling some of the gus - 
please correct your nasty program, which does not work as intended (or 
miracurously works as intended).

Kind regards
Pawel
