Hi Jean-Louis,
that's great - thank you all.
I have a naive question - does the fact that we have Linux builds for
several flavours mean that B - Linux expert is redundant - or is there a
lot of build independent stuff we need on Linux - I know on Windows there
is the ole stuff, ooDialog and even a live bug about shelling out. Are
there equivalent linux things? When I look in the platform folder it seems
to be mainly (all?) about building. Can I remove B from the list?

A - The interpreter itself Jean-Louis (debugs) B - Linux expert C -

z/os) Jean-Louis (MacOs Yosemiti Ubuntu Win) G - The test framework Erich H
- The test suite Erich (5.0) Jean Louis I - The documentation processing
(Docbook). Erich (5.0 RexxRef) Walter (tickets) J - ooDialog
