Both have serious warts.
Eeek! :)
As it seems to fit well in the KISS principle that I try to follow.
Sometimes making a language or an OS too simple makes its use too
complicated.
Yes, but at least regarding REXX I haven't found any mentionable
"wartifications".
Do You think of any specific points ?
But AFAICS IBM is "demounting" VM.
I can't see that happening, however much they might like to.
You could be right (in that there is no demounting), but I don't understand
why they would want to do that.
(I had the impression that there were very little support(ing developement)
needed
for VM, especially compared to MVS.)
