I think 3 lines of comments is generous ;-)
When I went through that lovely set of code to document the PI error
messages I was wishing i could find the design spec, but I believe the
spec matched the number of comments in the Kernel (i.e. it did not exist).

One of the reasons PI/open could not advance was that its source control system was
written in MIDASPLUS. D'oh!

Working for Prime in Copenhagen from 1984 to 1992 supporting PI I
certainly remember these international events.
It's fun to see the names popping up on this list, it brings along a lot
of fine memories, including that I owe Lance a beer next time we met. It
never happened, but the memories...
I was one of the two technical managers for the development of PI/open.
It's always sad watching a product that you worked on be put into
retirement.
Perhaps I can now throw out my collection of PI/open manuals.

Clif,
We're using PI/Open on our HP for a subset of our accounting
data.
We also have a copy of PI/Open 3.2 running on an old Prime/EXL - the
MIPS
based box that Prime used to sell! We may even have a copy of PI/PC
around
