It seems odd ( well not really if you consider that GCC compete with their own XLC/C++) that they wouldn't offer it as a courtesy port for Z/OS. PL/8 on the other hand would probably have to many hardware specific statements and elements to be of general use. It does offer us a glimpse of just where they might be headed. The PERL port was fairly complete, The PHP was well done, and I'm still waiting for a Python port. It would be nice to have Eclipse as an IDE. I would doubt that we see any more than this on their side.
