Hi, Mark.

I'm aware of that effort and I have been keeping an eye on it from time
to time. It does look promising, and we'll know a lot more when it
finally begins to generate real executable code.

BTW, if you go to the SourceForge page for the project and download the
current *.zip file, you'll find two interesting PL/I applications in the
samples directory. One add object oriented programming constructs to
PL/I and the other is a package for managing yacht races.....something
we all need form time to time, I'm sure....:-)

But first we would need a really good PL/I compiler, which in itself, is
not a bad thing. I would really like to have a reasonable alternative to
C for implementing things in Linux, for all of the reasons plus some,
that DB mentions below.
Dave,
I think they are looking for developers ;-)
